Windows Escalate Service Permissions Local Privilege Escalation
This module attempts to exploit existing administrative privileges to obtain a SYSTEM session. If directly creating a service fails, this module will inspect existing services to look for insecure file or configuration permissions that may be hijacked. It will then attempt to restart the replaced service to run the payload. This will result in a new session when this succeeds. If the module is able to modify the service but does not have permission to start and stop the affected service, the attacker must wait for the system to restart before a session will be created.
