System Scheduler Professional 5.30 is subject to privilege escalation due to insecure file permissions, impacting
where the service 'WindowsScheduler' calls its executable. A non-privileged user could execute arbitrary code with
elevated privileges (system level privileges as "nt authority\system") since the service runs as Local System;
renaming the WService.exe file located in the software's path and replacing it with a malicious file, the new one
will be executed after a short while.
