An unlimited recursion in DxeCore in EDK II.

According to the versions of the edk2 package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Insufficient control flow management in BIOS firmware for 8th, 9th, 10th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM),     Intel(R) Celeron(R) Processor 4000 & 5000 Series Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially     enable denial of service via adjacent access. (CVE-2019-14558)

  - Use after free vulnerability in EDK II may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of     privilege, information disclosure and/or denial of service via adjacent access. (CVE-2019-14586)

  - Logic issue EDK II may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent     access. (CVE-2019-14587)

  - An unlimited recursion in DxeCore in EDK II. (CVE-2021-28210)

  - Existing CommBuffer checks in SmmEntryPoint will not catch underflow when computing BufferSize.
    (CVE-2021-38578)
