Hi Min,

We have the same issue with Ubuntu 22.04.04 after loading shim, Ubuntu 
22.04.5(using shim 15.8) has fixed the issue.

Thanks,
Crystal

This is a long standing bug in shim, that has been fixed 2 years ago [0] but 
the distros keep shipping outdated versions, due to the reluctance of MS to 
sign new shim builds.

The solutions are:
- disable the EFI memory attributes protocol altogether.
- ignore the distros so they are forced to clean up their mess.
