Technical Details & Description:
================================
A local buffer overflow and arbitrary code exeuction has been discovered
in the official Lenovo SU v5.7.x & v5.6.x. software.
The vulnerability allows to overwrite the active registers of the
process to compromise the affected software by gaining
higher system access privileges.

MapDrv (C:Program FilesLenovoSystem Update mapdrv.exe) contains a local
vulnerability where an attacker entering very large user ID
or password can overrun the programas buffer, causing undefined
behaviors, such as execution of arbitrary code. No additional privilege is
granted to the attacker beyond what is already possessed to run MapDrv.
The flaw could be exploited by local attackers for different kind
of attacks, include the execution of arbitrary code on the target machine.

Exploitation of the local buffer overflow vulnerability requires no user
interaction and system user process privileges of the driver.
Successful exploitation of the buffer overflow vulnerability results in
a compromise of the local system process or affected computer system.

Vulnerable Driver:
[+] MapDrv

Affected Process:
[+] mapdrv.exe


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The vulnerability can be exploited by local attackers with system
process privileges and without user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the
provided information and steps below.
