REDHAT-BUG-2345854: Integer Overflow
First published: Fri Feb 14 2025(Updated: )
There's an integer overflow in the BFS file system driver. When reading a file with indirect extent map grub2 fails to validate the number of extent entries to be read. A crafted or corrupted BFS filesystem may cause a integer overflow during the file reading, leading to a Heap Ouf-of-Bounds read. As consequence sensitive data may be leaked or the grub2 to crash.
