Subject: [USN-868-1] GRUB 2 vulnerability

===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-868-1          December 09, 2009
grub2 vulnerability
CVE-2009-4128
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 9.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 9.10:
  grub2                           1.97~beta4-1ubuntu4.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Users who have upgraded from GRUB Legacy to GRUB 2 and are still using Grub
Legacy to chainload into GRUB 2, you will have to run the following command
(possibly adjusting 'hd0') to update GRUB 2's on disk core image:

$ sudo grub-install --no-floppy --grub-setup=/bin/true "(hd0)"

If you previously ran 'upgrade-from-grub-legacy', a standard system upgrade
is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

It was discovered that GRUB 2 did not properly validate passwords. An
attacker with physical access could conduct a brute force attack and bypass
authentication by submitting a 1 character password.


Updated packages for Ubuntu 9.10:
