Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for grub2.
CVE-2025-4382[0]:
| A flaw was found in systems utilizing LUKS-encrypted disks with GRUB
| configured for TPM-based auto-decryption. When GRUB is set to
| automatically decrypt disks using keys stored in the TPM, it reads
| the decryption key into system memory. If an attacker with physical
| access can corrupt the underlying filesystem superblock, GRUB will
| fail to locate a valid filesystem and enter rescue mode. At this
| point, the disk is already decrypted, and the decryption key remains
| loaded in system memory. This scenario may allow an attacker with
| physical access to access the unencrypted data without any further
| authentication, thereby compromising data confidentiality.
| Furthermore, the ability to force this state through filesystem
| corruption also presents a data integrity concern.
The fix depends code on introducing as well code introduced later to
be able to block command line interface at build time, but my
understanding would be that it is present before?
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
