edk2 (2025.02-8) unstable; urgency=medium

  * ovmf, ovmf-ia32, qemu-efi-aarch64: Uninstall the EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE
    protocol by default in the *.secboot.fd variants to avoid boot crashes
    with incompatible guest operating systems. This is to give virtual
    machine managers like libvirt and incus a release cycle to determine how
    to handle these guests. Add new *.secboot.strictnx.fd variants that users
    can opt-in to to benefit from NX security features. EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE
    support will be restored for all *.secboot.fd images at the start of
    the next devel cycle, at which point *.secboot.strictnx.fd will become
    symlink aliases. Note this in NEWS.Debian and README.Debian files.
    (Closes: #1103906).
  * Fix out-of-bounds read in HashPeImageByType(), CVE-2024-38797.
