1. Description:  
  
Abyss Web Server installs a service called 'AbyssWebServer' with an unquoted service path 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. Abyss Web Server also suffers from weak file and folder permissions which could allow  
  
an unauthorized user to swop out executable files with their own payload.

3. Exploit:  
  
A successful attempt would require the local user to be able to insert their  
code in the system root path undetected by the OS or other security applications  
where it could potentially be executed during application startup or reboot.  
If successful, the local user's code would execute with the elevated privileges  
of the application.
