SVN r16380 ("UEFI 2.4 X509 Certificate Hash and RFC3161 Timestamp Verification support for Secure Boot") broke the "dbt" variable's association with its expected namespace GUID.
According to "MdePkg/Include/Guid/ImageAuthentication.h", *all* of the "db", "dbx", and "dbt" (== EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE2) variables have their special meanings in the EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE_GUID namespace. However, the above commit introduced the following expression in VariableServiceSetVariable(): - } else if (CompareGuid (VendorGuid, &gEfiImageSecurityDatabaseGuid) && - ((StrCmp (VariableName, EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE) == 0) || (StrCmp (VariableName, EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE1) == 0))) { + } else if (CompareGuid (VendorGuid, &gEfiImageSecurityDatabaseGuid) && + ((StrCmp (VariableName, EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE) == 0) || (StrCmp (VariableName, EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE1) == 0)) + || (StrCmp (VariableName, EFI_IMAGE_SECURITY_DATABASE2)) == 0) { Simply replacing the individual expressions with the predicates "GuidMatch", "DbMatch", "DbxMatch", and "DbtMatch", the above transformation becomes: - } else if (GuidMatch && - ((DbMatch) || (DbxMatch))) { + } else if (GuidMatch && + ((DbMatch) || (DbxMatch)) + || DbtMatch) { In shorter form, we change GuidMatch && (DbMatch || DbxMatch) into GuidMatch && (DbMatch || DbxMatch) || DbtMatch which is incorrect, because this way "dbt" will match outside of the intended namespace / GUID. The error was caught by gcc: > SecurityPkg/VariableAuthenticated/RuntimeDxe/Variable.c: In function > 'VariableServiceSetVariable': > > SecurityPkg/VariableAuthenticated/RuntimeDxe/Variable.c:3188:71: error: > suggest parentheses around '&&' within '||' [-Werror=parentheses] > > } else if (CompareGuid (VendorGuid, &gEfiImageSecurityDatabaseGuid) && > ^ > cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Fix the parentheses. This change may have security implications.
