Fedora CoreOS supports setting a GRUB bootloader password using a Butane config. When this feature is enabled, GRUB requires a password to access the GRUB command-line, modify kernel command-line arguments, or boot non-default OSTree deployments. Recent Fedora CoreOS releases have a misconfiguration which allows booting non-default OSTree deployments without entering a password. This allows someone with access to the GRUB menu to boot into an older version of Fedora CoreOS, reverting any security fixes that have recently been applied to the machine. A password is still required to modify kernel command-line arguments and to access the GRUB command line.

A flaw was found in the coreos-installer, where it writes the Ignition config to the target system with world-readable access permissions. This flaw allows a local attacker to have read access to potentially sensitive data. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.

An improper signature verification vulnerability was found in coreos-installer. A specially crafted gzip installation image can bypass the image signature verification and as a consequence can lead to the installation of unsigned content. An attacker able to modify the original installation image can write arbitrary data, and achieve full access to the node being installed.

Improper neutralization of argument delimiters in a command ('Argument Injection') vulnerability in TCP/IP function included in the firmware of GT14 Model of GOT 1000 series (GT1455-QTBDE CoreOS version "05.65.00.BD" and earlier, GT1450-QMBDE CoreOS version "05.65.00.BD" and earlier, GT1450-QLBDE CoreOS version "05.65.00.BD" and earlier, GT1455HS-QTBDE CoreOS version "05.65.00.BD" and earlier, and GT1450HS-QMBDE CoreOS version "05.65.00.BD" and earlier) allows unauthenticated attackers on adjacent network to stop the network functions of the products via a specially crafted packet.
