Lenovo System Update contains an authentication bypass (CWE-290) that permits a locally authenticated standard user to circumvent privilege checks and execute arbitrary code with elevated system privileges. Affected products span all tracked versions per CPE data, with Lenovo confirming the issue and releasing a patch under advisory LEN-213316. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, limiting immediate threat to environments where adversaries already have local user access.
An uncontrolled search path vulnerability was reported in Lenovo System Update that could allow an attacker with local access to execute code with elevated privileges. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.8), this vulnerability is low attack complexity.
A vulnerability was reported in Lenovo System Update that could allow a local user with interactive system access the ability to execute code with elevated privileges only during the installation of. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.3), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Dell System Update (DSU) 1.9 and earlier versions contain a denial of service vulnerability. Rated medium severity (CVSS 5.5), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
A race condition vulnerability was reported in Lenovo System Update prior to version 5.07.0106 that could allow escalation of privilege. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.0).
A denial of service vulnerability was reported in Lenovo System Update versions prior to 5.07.0088 that could allow configuration files to be written to non-standard locations. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity.
A denial of service vulnerability was reported in Lenovo System Update before version 5.07.0084 that could allow service log files to be written to non-standard locations. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
MapDrv (C:\Program Files\Lenovo\System Update\mapdrv.exe) In Lenovo System Update versions earlier than 5.07.0072 contains a local vulnerability where an attacker entering very large user ID or. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.8), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
Lenovo System Update (formerly ThinkVantage System Update) before 5.07.0013 allows local users to submit commands to the System Update service (SUService.exe) and gain privileges by launching signed. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.8), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Race condition in Lenovo System Update (formerly ThinkVantage System Update) before 5.06.0034 uses world-writable permissions for the update files directory, which allows local users to gain. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9). No vendor patch available.
Lenovo System Update (formerly ThinkVantage System Update) before 5.06.0034 does not properly validate CA chains during signature validation, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to upload and. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.3), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
Lenovo System Update (formerly ThinkVantage System Update) before 5.06.0034 uses predictable security tokens, which allows local users to gain privileges by sending a valid token with a command to. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.2), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and EPSS exploitation probability 29.6%.
