Doc Text:
A security loophole involving an out-of-bounds read was identified in EDK2, the open-source reference implementation of the UEFI specification. This vulnerability enables an unauthorized attacker within the vicinity of the network to transmit a specifically crafted Neighbor Discovery Redirect message. Consequently, this may lead to the unauthorized reading of memory beyond the message boundaries, potentially resulting in the exposure of sensitive information.
