DESCRIPTION
dbxtool is a command line tool and oneshot systemd service for applying UEFI Secure Boot DBX updates.

    List DBX entries in the system database, or in a copy of it or an update file.

--verbose
    Show a bunch of verbose output about what dbxtool is doing.

update0
    An individual dbx update. This argument only works with --apply.
