An Improper Privilege Management issue was discovered in SpiderControl SCADA Web Server Version 2.02.0007 and prior. Authenticated, non-administrative local users are able to alter service executables with escalated privileges, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current system services.

Weakness

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
