[Bug 1959618] [NEW] shim's fallback hangs in CopyMem, can't boot ISOs

[valdikss]

Public bug reported:

I'm getting black screen trying to boot KDE Neon Unstable neon-unstable-20220130-0332.iso, which uses
shim-signed	1.40.7+15.4-0ubuntu9

This is due to a bug in shim 15.4 fallback (fbx64.efi), it fails on
CopyMem inside add_to_boot_list on my Lenovo X220 in this place of
fallback.c:

    CopyMem(newbootorder + 1, bootorder, sizeof (CHAR16) * option);
    CopyMem(newbootorder + option + 1, bootorder + option + 1,
        sizeof (CHAR16) * (nbootorder - option - 1));

The fix already present in upstream:
https://github.com/rhboot/shim/commit/41319e14c9144063605750baccd5bb332a3cf4fc

Kindly asking to apply this patch or update shim to current git master.
