Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A potential vulnerability was reported in the Lenovo PC Manager, Lenovo App Store, Lenovo Browser, and Lenovo Legion Zone client applications that, under certain conditions, could allow an attacker on the same logical network to execute arbitrary code.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A network-based vulnerability in Lenovo PC Manager, Lenovo App Store, Lenovo Browser, and Lenovo Legion Zone allows an attacker on the same logical network to execute arbitrary code. The specific attack vector and conditions are not fully detailed, but the CVSS 7.5 indicates high severity due to the code execution impact.

MitigationApply vendor-provided patches when available and implement network segmentation to restrict lateral movement by attackers on the same logical network.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Lenovo applications
    Enumerate installed programs for Lenovo PC Manager, Lenovo App Store, Lenovo Browser, or Lenovo Legion Zone. Run: Get-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*' | Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -match 'Lenovo'}
    Affected if Any of these four Lenovo applications are present on the system
  2. Verify network listening services
    Run 'netstat -ano | findstr LISTENING' to identify ports listening on network interfaces. Cross-reference the owning process ID with tasklist to determine if a Lenovo application process is bound to a network interface
    Affected if A Lenovo application process is listening on a network interface (not localhost only)
  3. Check application version
    Compare the installed version found in step 1 against any vendor release notes or security advisories for CVE-2025-10495 to determine if the version is vulnerable
    Affected if The installed version matches or predates the vulnerable version range for the affected product
  4. Assess network exposure
    Determine if the system is on a shared or untrusted network segment where an attacker could reach the vulnerable service. Check IP address and network topology
    Affected if The system is accessible to untrusted devices on the same logical network

System is affected if any of the four Lenovo applications (PC Manager, App Store, Browser, Legion Zone) are installed, running a network-facing service, and the installed version is within the vulnerable range for CVE-2025-10495
