Transition application, published on 26 Jan 2017. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-8227 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Lenovo Group Ltd. Transition application. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8227/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8227/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-8227","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8227/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-8227","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jf5r-5m2h-p5mc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Lenovo Transition app","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can execute code with elevated privileges via the Lenovo Transition application on Windows systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"lenovo","cpe":[{"product":"transition","vendor":"lenovo"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Privilege escalation vulnerability in Lenovo Transition application used in Lenovo Yoga, Flex and Miix systems running Windows allows local users to execute code with elevated privileges.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Transition application","id":"CVE-2016-8227","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Service Bridge","id":"CVE-2016-8228"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in System X M5, M6, and X6 BIOS","id":"CVE-2016-8226"},"products":["Transition application"],"published":"2017-01-26","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["Lenovo Group Ltd."]},"summary":"Local attackers can execute code with elevated privileges via the Lenovo Transition application on Windows systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8227/"}
