A valid, authenticated XCC user with read only access may gain elevated privileges through a specifically crafted API call.

An authenticated XCC user can change permissions for any user through a crafted API command.

A valid, authenticated user may be able to trigger a denial of service of the XCC web user interface or other undefined behavior through a format string injection vulnerability in a web interface API.

A valid XCC user's local account permissions overrides their active directory permissions under specific configurations. This could lead to a privilege escalation. To be vulnerable, LDAP must be configured for authentication/authorization and logins configured as “Local First, then LDAP”.

An authenticated XCC user with Read-Only permission can change a different user’s password through a crafted API command.   This affects ThinkSystem v2 and v3 servers with XCC; ThinkSystem v1 servers are not affected.

A buffer overflow exists in the Remote Presence subsystem which can potentially allow valid, authenticated users to cause a recoverable subsystem denial of service.

An authenticated XCC user with elevated privileges can perform blind SQL injection in limited cases through a crafted API command.  This affects ThinkSystem v2 and v3 servers with XCC; ThinkSystem v1 servers are not affected.

A valid, authenticated XCC user with read-only permissions can modify custom user roles on other user accounts and the user trespass message through the XCC CLI. There is no exposure if SSH is disabled or if there are no users assigned optional read-only permissions.

A valid LDAP user, under specific conditions, will default to read-only permissions when authenticating into XCC. To be vulnerable, XCC must be configured to use an LDAP server for Authentication/Authorization and have the login permission attribute not defined.

A read-only authentication bypass vulnerability was reported in the Third Quarter 2021 release of Lenovo XClarity Controller (XCC) firmware affecting XCC devices configured in LDAP Authentication Only Mode and using an LDAP server that supports “unauthenticated bind”, such as Microsoft Active Directory. An unauthenticated user can gain read-only access to XCC in such a configuration, thereby allowing the XCC device configuration to be viewed but not changed. XCC devices configured to use local authentication, LDAP Authentication + Authorization Mode, or LDAP servers that support only “authenticated bind” and/or “anonymous bind” are not affected.

A valid, authenticated administrative user can query a web interface API to reveal the configured LDAP client password used by XCC to authenticate to an external LDAP server in certain configurations. There is no exposure where no LDAP client password is configured

An internal product security audit of Lenovo XClarity Controller (XCC) discovered that the XCC configuration backup/restore password may be written to an internal XCC log buffer if Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA) is used to perform the backup/restore. The backup/restore password typically exists in this internal log buffer for less than 10 minutes before being overwritten. Generating an FFDC service log will include the log buffer contents, including the backup/restore password if present. The FFDC service log is only generated when requested by a privileged XCC user and it is only accessible to the privileged XCC user that requested the file. The backup/restore password is not captured if the backup/restore is initiated directly from XCC.

An information leak vulnerability in the SMI Set BIOS Password SMI Handler in some Lenovo models may allow an attacker with local access and elevated privileges to read SMM memory.

The Remote Mount feature can potentially be abused by valid, authenticated users to make connections to internal services that may not normally be accessible to users. Internal service access controls, as applicable, remain in effect.
