## Additional Resources

+before `ExitBootServices()` has been called — kernel command line arguments and DeviceTree blobs — that are
not validated before use, as they do not carry signatures. For this reason, when SecureBoot is enabled,
loading these resources is automatically disabled. There is no override for this security mechanism, neither
at build time nor at runtime. Note that initrds are also not verified in BLS Type #1 configurations, for
only load them after `ExitBootServices()` has been called.
Another mechanism is supported by `systemd-boot` and `systemd-stub` to add additional payloads to the boot

In contrast to the user-specified additions in the Type #1 case
described above, these addons are loaded through the UEFI image loading protocol, and thus are subject to
