CVE-2021-41289

ASUS P453UJ contains the Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability. With a general user’s permission, local attackers can modify the BIOS by replacing or filling in the content of the designated Memory DataBuffer, which causing a failure of integrity verification and further resulting in a failure to boot.
