CVE-2022-28735  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:14 grub2 to version 2.06-3 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream grub2 package and not the grub2 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:14 relevant fixed versions and status.

The GRUB2's shim_lock verifier allows non-kernel files to be loaded on shim-powered secure boot systems. Allowing such files to be loaded may lead to unverified code and modules to be loaded in GRUB2 breaking the secure boot trust-chain.
