=====================================================
 
Wampserver installs two services called 'wampapache' and 'wampmysqld'
with weak file permission running with SYSTEM privileges.
This could potentially allow an authorized but non-privileged local user
to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the system.

Notice the line: NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(M) which lists the
permissions for authenticated however unprivileged users. The (M) stands
for Modify, which grants us, as an unprivileged user, the ability to
read, write and delete files and subfolders within this folder.


====Proof-of-Concept====

To properly exploit this vulnerability, the local attacker must insert
an executable file called mysqld.exe or httpd.exe and replace the
original files. Next time service starts the malicious file will get
executed as SYSTEM.
