In some Lenovo ThinkPad products, one BIOS region is not properly included in the checks, allowing injection of arbitrary code.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
