Let $d$ a positive integer How to generate a sample of $n$ random variables with a multivariate uniform distribution on the cube $[a,b]^d$ in R?
I don't know what to do. I know that I need a covariance matrix for the random vectors that I will generate…

It depends a little bit on the terminology, but usually multivariate uniform refers to a distribution where every point in $[a,b]^d$ is equally likely. Hence, the dimensions are independent, and you can draw uniformly between $[a,b]$ d times individually to get a sample from the multivariate uniform.
If you don't want the dimensions to be independent, it might be worth looking into Copulas
