shim is a package against which you can file bugs.

If you prefer mailing list conversation
  https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/shim-signed
points to
  https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?email=debian-efi%40lists.debian.org
which mentions
  debian-efi@lists.debian.org
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-efi/

Then there is
  debian-live@lists.debian.org
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-live/
which is about production of the debian-live ISOs and should be interested
in learning about boot failures.

The time when this was discussed would match
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim/+bug/1937115
but the error messages are different.
Nevertheless if you are bored enough you could test whether their Live
ISOs boot for you after their shim repair:

If so, then this might be a clue for the Debian developers.


Have a nice day :)
