Overview

AI description

Automated description summarized from trusted sources.

CVE-2025-8061 refers to a potential insufficient access control vulnerability found in the Lenovo Dispatcher 3.0 and 3.1 drivers. This vulnerability affects some Lenovo consumer notebooks and could allow a local, authenticated user to execute code with elevated privileges. The Lenovo Dispatcher 3.2 driver is not affected. It was reported that the product implements an IOCTL (Input/Output Control) with functionality that should be restricted, but it does not properly enforce access control for the IOCTL. Furthermore, this vulnerability does not affect systems where the Windows feature "Core Isolation Memory Integrity" is enabled, which is the default setting on Lenovo systems preloaded with Windows 11.
