Microsofts Security Copilot Uncovers 20 Critical Bootloader Vulnerabilities

The AIpowered Security Copilot from Microsoft has found 20 hitherto undiscovered flaws in opensource bootloaders, such as GRUB2, UBoot, and Barebox.

The AIpowered Security Copilot from Microsoft has found 20 hitherto undiscovered flaws in opensource bootloaders, such as GRUB2, UBoot, and Barebox. These bootloaders are essential for Internet of Things applications, embedded devices, and Linuxbased computers. The holes could enable attackers to get around UEFI Secure Boot and install persistent malware. They include buffer overflows, integer overflows, and cryptographic errors. Exploiting these vulnerabilities might give attackers complete control over devices, including replacing the hard drive or reinstalling the operating system. Security upgrades have fixed these problems, and users are encouraged to install them immediately. This discovery shows the expanding relevance of AI in improving cybersecurity. Read More..
