live-boot ff8867c allows attackers to bypass the dm-verity-enforce-roothash-signature protection mechanism when the .verity file is missing.

AnalysisAI

live-boot at commit ff8867c silently skips dm-verity root hash signature verification when the .verity file is absent from the live medium, allowing a physically present attacker to boot a tampered or unsigned root filesystem image that bypasses integrity enforcement. The flaw undermines the dm-verity-enforce-roothash-signature kernel protection intended to guarantee boot-time filesystem authenticity on Debian live systems. …
