Summary

CVE-2025-0686 is a vulnerability affecting the grub2 system. In this issue, the romfs filesystem module utilizes user-controlled parameters for determining buffer sizes, failing to adequately check for integer overflows. Maliciously crafted filesystems can exploit this flaw, leading to out-of-bounds writes during grub_romfs_read_symlink(). This can result in corruption of critical data and bypassing secure boot protections, potentially enabling arbitrary code execution.
