[RHSA-2020:3223-01] Moderate: grub2 security update

Wed Jul 29 19:39:48 UTC 2020

An update for grub2, shim, shim-unsigned-x64, and fwupd is now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1 Extended Update Support.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat CodeReady Linux Builder EUS (v. 8.1) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS EUS (v. 8.1) - aarch64, noarch, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:

The grub2 packages provide version 2 of the Grand Unified Boot Loader
(GRUB), a highly configurable and customizable boot loader with modular
architecture. The packages support a variety of kernel formats, file
systems, computer architectures, and hardware devices.

The shim package contains a first-stage UEFI boot loader that handles
chaining to a trusted full boot loader under secure boot environments.

The fwupd packages provide a service that allows session software to update
device firmware.

Security Fix(es):

* grub2: Crafted grub.cfg file can lead to arbitrary code execution during
boot process (CVE-2020-10713)

* grub2: grub_malloc does not validate allocation size allowing for
arithmetic overflow and subsequent heap-based buffer overflow
(CVE-2020-14308)

* grub2: Integer overflow in grub_squash_read_symlink may lead to
heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2020-14309)

* grub2: Integer overflow read_section_as_string may lead to heap-based
buffer overflow (CVE-2020-14310)

* grub2: Integer overflow in grub_ext2_read_link leads to heap-based buffer
overflow (CVE-2020-14311)

* grub2: Fail kernel validation without shim protocol (CVE-2020-15705)

* grub2: Use-after-free redefining a function whilst the same function is
already executing (CVE-2020-15706)

* grub2: Integer overflow in initrd size handling (CVE-2020-15707)
