Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in GRUB2.

Software Description:
- grub2-signed: GRand Unified Bootloader
- grub2-unsigned: GRand Unified Bootloader

heap-based out-of-bounds write. A local attacker could potentially use this
to perform arbitrary code execution bypass and bypass secure boot
protections. (CVE-2023-4692)
