Realtek Audio Drivers for Windows, as used on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 20A7, 20A8, 20BS, and 20BT before 6.0.8882.1 and 20KH and 20KG before 6.0.8907.1 (and on many other Lenovo and non-Lenovo products), mishandles DLL preloading.

A local privilege escalation vulnerability was identified in the Realtek audio driver versions prior to 6.0.1.8224 in some Lenovo ThinkPad products. An attacker with local privileges could execute code with administrative privileges.

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.

An unquoted search path vulnerability was reported in versions prior to 1.0.83.0 of the Synaptics Smart Audio UWP app associated with the DCHU audio drivers on Lenovo platforms that could allow an administrative user to execute arbitrary code.

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.

The BIOS tamper detection mechanism was not triggered in Lenovo ThinkPad T460p, BIOS versions up to R07ET90W, and T470p, BIOS versions up to R0FET50W, which may allow for unauthorized access.

A potential vulnerability in the SMI callback function used in the Legacy USB driver using boot services structure in runtime phase in some Lenovo ThinkPad models may allow arbitrary code execution.

A potential vulnerability in the SMI callback function used in Legacy USB driver using passed parameter without sufficient checking in some Lenovo ThinkPad models may allow arbitrary code execution.
