Summary
[none]
Details

A flaw was found in grub2. The calculation of the translation buffer when reading a language .mo file in grubgettextgetstrfromposition() may overflow, leading to a Out-of-bound write. This issue can be leveraged by an attacker to overwrite grub2's sensitive heap data, eventually leading to the circumvention of secure boot protections.
