There is a vulnerability with the Dolby DAX2 API system services in which a low-privileged user can terminate arbitrary processes that are running at a higher privilege. The following are affected products and versions: Legion Y520T_Z370 6.0.1.8642, AIO310-20IAP 6.0.1.8642, AIO510-22ISH 6.0.1.8642, AIO510-23ISH 6.0.1.8642, AIO520-22IKL 6.0.1.8642, AIO520-22IKU 6.0.1.8642, AIO520-24IKL 6.0.1.8642, AIO520-24IKU 6.0.1.8642, AIO520-27IKL 6.0.1.8642, AIO720-24IKB 6.0.1.8642, IdeaCentre 520S-23IKU 6.0.1.8642, ThinkCentre M700z 6.0.1.8642, ThinkCentre M800z 6.0.1.8642, ThinkCentre M810z 6.0.1.8642, ThinkCentre M818z 6.0.1.8642, ThinkCentre M900Z 6.0.1.8642, ThinkCentre M910z 6.0.1.8642, V410z(YT S4250) 6.0.1.8642, 330-14IKBR Win10:6.0.1.8652, 330-15IKBR Win10:6.0.1.8652, 330-15IKBR (Brazil) Win10:6.0.1.8652, 330-15IKBR Touch Win10:6.0.1.8652, 330-17IKBR Win10:6.0.1.8652, YOGA 730-13IKB Win10:6.0.1.8644, YOGA 730-15IKB Win10:6.0.1.8644, ThinkPad L560 6.0.1.8644 and 6.0.1.8652, ThinkPad L570 6…

In Lenovo systems, SMM BIOS Write Protection is used to prevent writes to SPI Flash. While this provides sufficient protection, an additional layer of protection is provided by SPI Protected Range Registers (PRx). Lenovo was notified that after resuming from S3 sleep mode in various versions of BIOS for Lenovo systems, the PRx is not set. This does not impact the SMM BIOS Write Protection, which keeps systems protected.

In some Lenovo ThinkPads, an unquoted search path vulnerability was found in various versions of the Synaptics Pointing Device driver which could allow unauthorized code execution as a low privilege user.

Platform sample code firmware in 4th Generation Intel Core Processor, 5th Generation Intel Core Processor, 6th Generation Intel Core Processor, 7th Generation Intel Core Processor and 8th Generation Intel Core Processor contains a logic error which may allow physical attacker to potentially bypass firmware authentication.

In some Lenovo ThinkPad products, one BIOS region is not properly included in the checks, allowing injection of arbitrary code.

A privilege escalation vulnerability was identified in Lenovo Active Protection System for ThinkPad systems versions earlier than 1.82.0.17. An attacker with local privileges could execute code with administrative privileges via an unquoted service path.

A vulnerability has been identified in a signed kernel driver for the BIOS of some ThinkPad systems that can allow an attacker with Windows administrator-level privileges to call System Management Mode (SMM) services. This could lead to a denial of service attack or allow certain BIOS variables or settings to be altered (such as boot sequence). The setting or changing of BIOS passwords is not affected by this vulnerability.
