MITRE is populating this ID because it was assigned prior to Lenovo becoming a CNA. A local privilege escalation vulnerability was reported (fixed and publicly disclosed in 2015) in Lenovo System Update version 5.07.0008 and prior where the SUService.exe /type INF and INF_BY_COMPATIBLE_ID command types could allow a user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

Weakness

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
