Problem occurs also if GRUB is owned by debian
grub2-common:  Installed: 2.12-5
/etc/grub.d not changed, as created from install

GRUB 2.12-5ubuntu7
On my PC with multiple Ubuntu installed in different partitions
Grub creates spurious entries in the menu when i select 'Advanced options' for a system different from the one owning the Grub.
I see the spurious entries for Ubuntu 24.04, 24.10, 25.04 where memtest... have suffix .efi but not for Ubuntu 22.04 where they have suffix .elf

See attached picture.
