NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream grub2-s390x-emu package and not the grub2-s390x-emu package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the HFS filesystem. When reading an HFS volume's name at grub_fs_mount(), the HFS filesystem driver performs a strcpy() using the user-provided volume name as input without properly validating the volume name's length. This issue may read to a heap-based out-of-bounds writer, impacting grub's sensitive data integrity and eventually leading to a secure boot protection bypass.
