Description

A security feature bypass vulnerability exists when Windows Secure Boot improperly loads a boot manager that is affected by the vulnerability. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could disable code integrity checks, allowing test-signed executables and drivers to be loaded onto a target device. Furthermore, the attacker could bypass Secure Boot Integrity Validation for BitLocker and Device Encryption security features.
