Re: "Lenovo Solution Center" is not only bloatware, but also dangerous!
It is part of the problem only. The Lenovo Solution Center is written in Adobe Air that is basically Adobe Flash on desktop with all their persistent vulnerabilities. I'd recommend to uninstall both of them.
Reading the vulnerability description I can say this is not just an ordinary bug "that happens", this is a total software architecture failure

The patched version 2.8.006 and 3.2.002 are released today for self update through LSC and should be available for download via the support site soon - perhaps as early as tommorow.
