  [Impact]
  
   * Ship 2020 dbxupdate from MS
  
  [Test Case]
  
-  * In case of multi-boot systems, please plan to boot into every
+  * In case of multi-boot systems, please plan to boot into every
  operating system on your multi-boot systems and install updates as soon
  as your other operating system distributions publish updates for
  BootHole vulnerability.
  
   * Install package on Secureboot UEFI enabled system
   * Reboot
   * Observe that it still reboots
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
   * Installing this package even once will update DBX variable in the
  UEFI firmware and will prevent booting:
  
   - All Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL, Fedora, OpenSUSE, SUSE, Oracle Linux milestones 
/ media released before August 2020
   - Certain version of Kaspersky Labs UEFI protect software
   - Certain version of HPE Inc ProLiant automatic OS provisioning
  
  As they are all vulnerable to the BootHole vunlerability.
  
  For example, one will have to use 16.04.7 LTS, 18.04.5 LTS, 20.04.1 LTS
  installer media if they want to reinstall.
  
  If any dual boot configurations are failing to boot, one must navigated
  to UEFI BIOS settings and either reset DBX variables to stock values, or
  disable secureboot. Upgrade any systems that are now prohibited to boot.
  And then re-enable secureboot & reinstall secureboot-db package to
  reapply dbx updates.
  
  Please note simple downgrade of secureboot-db package will not achieve
  anything, as downgrading the package does not revert the firmware
  changes.
