Microsoft Threat Intelligence used Security Copilot, static analysis, fuzzing, and manual review to discover and responsibly disclose multiple integer-overflow and memory-corruption vulnerabilities across GRUB2 and related open-source bootloaders (U-boot, Barebox). These flaws could enable arbitrary code execution, Secure Boot bypass, and persistent bootkits on affected systems; maintainers issued security updates and mitigations in February 2025 and users are advised to apply patches.
