An authentication bypass vulnerability was discovered in Lenovo Software Fix that could allow a local authenticated user to perform arbitrary code execution with elevated privileges.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation in Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant (LMSA) enables a local authenticated user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges by exploiting a capture-and-replay authentication bypass (CWE-290) in the application's privileged service layer. The vulnerability is strictly local in scope per the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/PR:L), limiting the threat to attackers who already hold a standard user account on an affected Lenovo device. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must hold an existing local authenticated user account on the target machine (PR:L per CVSS 4.0) - purely remote unauthenticated exploitation is not possible given AV:L. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.5 (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) is well-calibrated: low attack complexity with no special prerequisites, full impact on the vulnerable system, and no subsequent system scope change. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Apply the vendor-released patch by obtaining the updated version of Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant (LMSA) from the Lenovo advisory LEN-217409 at https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/product_security/LEN-217409 and the download page at https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds101291-rescue-and-smart-assistant-lmsa; exact patched version numbers must be confirmed from those sources as they are not available in the CVE input data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, identify all Lenovo devices running LMSA in your environment and flag those handling sensitive data or with access to critical systems. …
