Building on the parsers and the ability to embed X.509 certificates, as well as the existing gcrypt functionality, add a module for verifying appended signatures. This includes a signature verifier that requires that the Linux kernel and GRUB modules have appended signatures for verification. Signature verification must be enabled by setting check_appended_signatures. If secure boot is enabled with enforce mode when the appendedsig module is loaded, signature verification will be enabled, and trusted keys will be extracted from the GRUB ELF Note and stored in the db and locked automatically.

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader. GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more robust, more powerful, and more portable. See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the GRUB 2 data and program files. See the file MAINTAINERS for information about the GRUB maintainers, etc. If you found a security vulnerability in the GRUB please check the SECURITY file to get more information how to properly report this kind of bugs to the maintainers. Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information. The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>. More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual, accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2. There are a number of important user-visible differences from the first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please see: info grub Introduction 'Changes from GRUB Legacy'
