The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:3227 advisory.

    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)

According to the versions of the grub2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB) is a highly     configurable and customizable bootloader with modular     architecture. It supports a rich variety of kernel     formats, file systems, computer architectures and     hardware devices.Security Fix(es):There's an issue with     grub2 in all versions before 2.06 when handling     squashfs filesystems containing a symbolic link with     name length of UINT32 bytes in size. The name size     leads to an arithmetic overflow leading to a zero-size     allocation further causing a heap-based buffer overflow     with attacker controlled data.(CVE-2020-14309)There is     an issue on grub2 before version 2.06 at function     read_section_as_string(). It expects a font name to be     at max UINT32_MAX - 1 length in bytes but it doesn't     verify it before proceed with buffer allocation to read     the value from the font value. An attacker may leverage     that by crafting a malicious font file which has a name     with UINT32_MAX, leading to read_section_as_string() to     an arithmetic overflow, zero-sized allocation and     further heap-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2020-14310)There is an issue with grub2     before version 2.06 while handling symlink on ext     filesystems. A filesystem containing a symbolic link     with an inode size of UINT32_MAX causes an arithmetic     overflow leading to a zero-sized memory allocation with     subsequent heap-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2020-14311)GRUB2 contains a race     condition in grub_script_function_create() leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability which can be triggered by     redefining a function whilst the same function is     already executing, leading to arbitrary code execution     and secure boot restriction bypass. This issue affects     GRUB2 version 2.04 and prior     versions.(CVE-2020-15706)Integer overflows were     discovered in the functions grub_cmd_initrd and     grub_initrd_init in the efilinux component of GRUB2, as     shipped in Debian, Red Hat, and Ubuntu (the     functionality is not included in GRUB2 upstream),     leading to a heap-based buffer overflow. These could be     triggered by an extremely large number of arguments to     the initrd command on 32-bit architectures, or a     crafted filesystem with very large files on any     architecture. An attacker could use this to execute     arbitrary code and bypass UEFI Secure Boot     restrictions. This issue affects GRUB2 version 2.04 and     prior versions.(CVE-2020-15707)In grub2 versions before     2.06 the grub memory allocator doesn't check for     possible arithmetic overflows on the requested     allocation size. This leads the function to return     invalid memory allocations which can be further used to     cause possible integrity, confidentiality and     availability impacts during the boot     process.(CVE-2020-14308)

According to the versions of the grub2 packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw was found in grub2, prior to version 2.06. An     attacker may use the GRUB 2 flaw to hijack and tamper     the GRUB verification process. This flaw also allows     the bypass of Secure Boot protections. In order to load     an untrusted or modified kernel, an attacker would     first need to establish access to the system such as     gaining physical access, obtain the ability to alter a     pxe-boot network, or have remote access to a networked     system with root access. With this access, an attacker     could then craft a string to cause a buffer overflow by     injecting a malicious payload that leads to arbitrary     code execution within GRUB. The highest threat from     this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and     integrity as well as system     availability.(CVE-2020-10713)

  - Integer overflows were discovered in the functions     grub_cmd_initrd and grub_initrd_init in the efilinux     component of GRUB2, as shipped in Debian, Red Hat, and     Ubuntu (the functionality is not included in GRUB2     upstream), leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
    These could be triggered by an extremely large number     of arguments to the initrd command on 32-bit     architectures, or a crafted filesystem with very large     files on any architecture. An attacker could use this     to execute arbitrary code and bypass UEFI Secure Boot     restrictions. This issue affects GRUB2 version 2.04 and     prior versions.(CVE-2020-15707)

  - GRUB2 contains a race condition in     grub_script_function_create() leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability which can be triggered by     redefining a function whilst the same function is     already executing, leading to arbitrary code execution     and secure boot restriction bypass. This issue affects     GRUB2 version 2.04 and prior versions.(CVE-2020-15706)

  - There is an issue with grub2 before version 2.06 while     handling symlink on ext filesystems. A filesystem     containing a symbolic link with an inode size of     UINT32_MAX causes an arithmetic overflow leading to a     zero-sized memory allocation with subsequent heap-based     buffer overflow.(CVE-2020-14311)

  - There's an issue with grub2 in all versions before 2.06     when handling squashfs filesystems containing a     symbolic link with name length of UINT32 bytes in size.
    The name size leads to an arithmetic overflow leading     to a zero-size allocation further causing a heap-based     buffer overflow with attacker controlled     data.(CVE-2020-14309)

  - In grub2 versions before 2.06 the grub memory allocator     doesn't check for possible arithmetic overflows on the     requested allocation size. This leads the function to     return invalid memory allocations which can be further     used to cause possible integrity, confidentiality and     availability impacts during the boot     process.(CVE-2020-14308)
