CVE-2025-1118  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-501  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable grub2 to version 2.12-6 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:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in grub2. Grub's dump command is not blocked when grub is in lockdown mode, which allows the user to read any memory information, and an attacker may leverage this in order to extract signatures, salts, and other sensitive information from the memory.
