I don't have a fix for GRUB, but you *should* be able to work around the
problem by using my rEFInd boot manager
(http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/):

1. In Linux, install the rEFInd Debian package.
2. Check the /boot/efi/EFI/refind directory. It should contain *either* a 
refind_x64.efi file *or* a shim.efi file and a grubx64.efi file.
3. If there's a refind_x64.efi file, rename it to grubx64.efi. That's rEFInd, 
despite the filename.
4. Download version 0.2 of shim from its download site 
(http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/shim-signed/). (Note that Ubuntu ships with 
shim 0.1, which is useless for the procedure I'm describing.) Use either the 
shim-signed.tgz or shim-signed-0.2.tgz files; they're identical. Alternatively, 
you could use Fedora's or OpenSuSE's version of shim 0.2.
5. Copy shim.efi from the shim package to /boot/efi/EFI/refind, overwriting 
shim.efi if it's already present.
6. Copy MokManager.efi from the shim package to /boot/efi/EFI/refind.
7. Use efibootmgr to add shim to the NVRAM boot options, as in "efibootmgr -c 
-l '\EFI\refind\shim.efi' -L rEFInd". (You *should* be able to skip  this step 
if you installed rEFInd with Secure Boot enabled.)
8. Reboot. You'll see the MokManager menu appear. Use it to add the keys for 
both rEFInd and Canonical to the MOK list. (If you have the right software 
installed, the rEFInd installer will re-sign the rEFInd binaries with 
locally-generated keys, in which case you should enroll your local public key 
instead of or in addition to the rEFInd key. IIRC, it's called 
refind_local.cer.) I'm afraid the MokManager user interface is dreadful; it 
makes an Apple II's UI look advanced. All the keys should be in the 
EFI\refind\keys directory of the ESP, which is probably the first partition in 
the list. You need the .der and .cer keys.
9. When you exit MokManager, the computer could boot Windows, launch rEFInd, 
reboot, or even hang. If it does anything but launch Linux, reboot.
10. When you reboot, rEFInd should come up as your default boot manager, and it 
should enable you to boot either Linux or Windows with Secure Boot active. You 
can verify that Secure Boot is active from the rEFInd information screen. 
(Check the "platform" line.)

For more information, as well as variants on this procedure involving
the Linux Foundation's PreLoader rather than shim, see the rEFInd page
