Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3758)

CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target device.

The weakness exists due to improper access controls on several Android components in the LSF application. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to the device and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

2) Man-in-the-middle attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3759)

CWE-ID: CWE-300 - Channel Accessible by Non-Endpoint ('Man-in-the-Middle')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to conduct MITM-attack.

The weakness exists due to the LSF application accepts some responses from the server without proper validation. A remote attacker can use man-in-the-middle techniques and possibly execute arbitrary code on the target device.

3) Man-in-the-middle attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3760)

CWE-ID: CWE-300 - Channel Accessible by Non-Endpoint ('Man-in-the-Middle')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to conduct MITM-attack.

The weakness exists due to the LSF application uses a set of nonsecure credentials when performing integrity verification of downloaded applications and/or data. A remote attacker can use man-in-the-middle techniques and possibly execute arbitrary code on the target device.

4) Command injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3761)

CWE-ID: CWE-77 - Command injection

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target device.

The weakness exists due to Lenovo Service Framework application executes some system commands without proper sanitization of external input. A remote attacker can inject commands and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
