Pygrub utiliza libfsimage para inspeccionar los discos invitados. Pygrub se ejecuta como el mismo usuario que la pila de herramientas (ra\u00edz en un dominio privilegiado).

Despu\u00e9s de m\u00e1s an\u00e1lisis, el equipo de seguridad de Xen ya no conf\u00eda en la idoneidad de libfsimage cuando se ejecuta contra entradas controladas por invitados con privilegios de superusuario. Para no afectar las implementaciones actuales que dependen de pygrub, en la secci\u00f3n de resoluci\u00f3n del aviso se proporcionan parches que permiten ejecutar pygrub en modo privado. CVE-2023-4949 se refiere al problema original en el proyecto grub anterior (\"Un atacante con acceso local a un sistema (ya sea a trav\u00e9s de un disco o una unidad externa) puede presentar una partici\u00f3n XFS modificada a grub-legacy de tal manera para explotar una corrupci\u00f3n de memoria en la implementaci\u00f3n del sistema de archivos XFS de grub\"). CVE-2023-34325 se refiere espec\u00edficamente a las vulnerabilidades en la copia de libfsimage de Xen, que desciende de una versi\u00f3n muy antigua de grub."
