revoked:

ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ sudo file /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-57-generic 
/boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-57-generic: gzip compressed data, was "vmlinuz-5.15.0-57-generic.efi.signed", last modified: Tue Nov 29 10:47:41 2022, max compression, from Unix, original size modulo 2^32 46283136

ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ sudo /usr/lib/shim/is-not-revoked /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-57-generic ~
Invalid DOS header magic
Can't open image /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-57-generic

Invalid DOS header magic
Can't open image /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-57-generic

If I decompress the vmlinuz file in place, it works:
