In grub-module-verifierXX.c, the function find_section() uses the value from
grub_target_to_host16 (e->e_shstrndx) to obtain the section header table index
of the section name string table, but it wasn't being checked if the value was
there.
According to the elf(5) manual page,
"If the index of section name string table section is larger than or equal to
SHN_LORESERVE (0xff00), this member holds SHN_XINDEX (0xffff) and the real
index of the section name string table section is held in the sh_link member of
the initial entry in section header table. Otherwise, the sh_link member of the
initial entry in section header table contains the value zero."
Since this check wasn't being made, the function get_shstrndx() is being added
to make this check and use e_shstrndx if it doesn't have SHN_XINDEX as a value,
else use sh_link. We also need to make sure e_shstrndx isn't greater than or
equal to SHN_LORESERVE and sh_link isn't less than SHN_LORESERVE.
Note that it may look as though the argument *arch isn't being used, it's
actually required in order to use the macros grub_target_to_host*(x) which are
unwinded to grub_target_to_host*_real(arch, (x)) based on defines earlier in the
file.
