Actually, no. The real bug is that efivars does not use QueryVariableInfo() (Section 7.2.2 UEFI Spec 2.3.1c) to check maximum size of storage for a variable. It simply assumes space is available.

There is one. It is called the Self Certification (SCT) for the UEFI Specification Version 2.3. It is available at http:://uefi.org.
