_______________________________________________________________________

Package : grub2
Date : March 29, 2015
Affected: Business Server 2.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Updated grub2 package fixes security vulnerability:

An integer overflow in liblzo before 2.07 allows attackers to cause
a denial of service or possibly code execution in applications using
performing LZO decompression on a compressed payload from the attacker
(CVE-2014-4607).

The grub2 package is built with a bundled copy of minilzo, which is
a part of liblzo containing the vulnerable code.
