Lenovo was using one of the most obvious, awful passwords of all time as a hard-coded password in its file sharing software. The vulnerabilities were remotely exploitable and affected the Android 3.0.0_ww and Windows 2.5.1.1. Lenovo took three months to patch the flaws to Lenovo back in October last year.
