An unauthenticated XML external entity injection (XXE) vulnerability exists in LXCA's Common Information Model (CIM) server that could result in read-only access to specific files.
An internal product security audit of Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) prior to version 3.1.0 discovered the Windows OS credentials provided by the LXCA user to perform driver updates of managed systems may be captured in the First Failure Data Capture (FFDC) service log if the service log is generated while managed endpoints are updating. The service log is only generated when requested by a privileged LXCA user and it is only accessible to the privileged LXCA user that requested the file and is then deleted.
An internal product security audit of Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) discovered Windows OS credentials, used to perform driver updates of managed systems, being written to a log file in clear text. This only affects LXCA version 2.6.0 when performing a Windows driver update. Affected logs are only accessible to authorized users in the First Failure Data Capture (FFDC) service log and log files on LXCA.
An XML External Entity (XXE) processing vulnerability was reported in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) versions prior to 2.6.6 that could allow information disclosure.
An information disclosure vulnerability was reported in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) versions prior to 2.6.6 that could allow unauthenticated access to some configuration files which may contain usernames, license keys, IP addresses, and encrypted password hashes.
An internal product security audit of Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) discovered a Document Object Model (DOM) based cross-site scripting vulnerability in versions prior to 2.6.6 that could allow JavaScript code to be executed in the user's web browser if a specially crafted link is visited. The JavaScript code is executed on the user's system, not executed on LXCA itself.
A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was reported in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) versions prior to 2.5.0 that could allow a crafted URL, if visited, to cause JavaScript code to be executed in the user's web browser. The JavaScript code is not executed on LXCA itself.
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was reported in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) versions prior to 2.5.0 that could allow an administrative user to cause JavaScript code to be stored in LXCA which may then be executed in the user's web browser. The JavaScript code is not executed on LXCA itself.
A stored CSV Injection vulnerability was reported in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) versions prior to 2.5.0 that could allow an administrative user to store malformed data in LXCA Jobs and Event Log data, that could result in crafted formulas stored in an exported CSV file. The crafted formula is not executed on LXCA itself.
An XML External Entity (XXE) processing vulnerability was reported in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) prior to version 2.5.0 , Lenovo XClarity Integrator (LXCI) for Microsoft System Center prior to version 7.7.0, and Lenovo XClarity Integrator (LXCI) for VMWare vCenter prior to version 6.1.0 that could allow information disclosure.
An internal product security audit of Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) discovered HTTP proxy credentials being written to a log file in clear text. This only affects LXCA when HTTP proxy credentials have been configured. This affects LXCA versions 2.0.0 to 2.3.x.
In Lenovo xClarity Administrator versions earlier than 2.1.0, an attacker that gains access to the underlying LXCA file system user may be able to retrieve a credential store containing the service processor user names and passwords for servers previously managed by that LXCA instance, and potentially decrypt those credentials more easily than intended.
In Lenovo xClarity Administrator versions earlier than 2.1.0, an authenticated LXCA user can, under specific circumstances, inject additional parameters into a specific web API call which can result in privileged command execution within LXCA's underlying operating system.
In Lenovo xClarity Administrator versions earlier than 2.1.0, an authenticated LXCA user may abuse a web API debug call to retrieve the credentials for the System Manager user.

A vulnerability was identified in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) before 1.4.0 where LXCA user account names may be exposed to unauthenticated users with access to the LXCA web user interface. No password information of the user accounts is exposed.
Privilege escalation vulnerability in LXCA versions earlier than 1.3.2 where an authenticated user may be able to abuse certain web interface functionality to execute privileged commands within the underlying LXCA operating system.
An attacker who obtains access to the location where the LXCA file system is stored may be able to access credentials of local LXCA accounts in LXCA versions earlier than 1.3.2.
In Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) before 1.3.0, if service data is downloaded from LXCA, a non-administrative user may have access to password information for users that have previously authenticated to the LXCA's internal LDAP server, including administrative accounts and service accounts with administrative privileges. This is an issue only for users who have used local authentication with LXCA and not remote authentication against external LDAP or ADFS servers.
Log files generated by Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) versions earlier than 1.2.2 may contain user credentials in a non-secure, clear text form that could be viewed by a non-privileged user.
Privilege Escalation in Lenovo XClarity Administrator earlier than 1.2.0, if LXCA is used to manage rack switches or chassis with embedded input/output modules (IOMs), certain log files viewable by authenticated users may contain passwords for internal administrative LXCA accounts with temporary passwords that are used internally by LXCA code.
