Vuln desc: 
The application is prone to insecure permissions in its folders that allows unprivileged user complete control. An attacker can exploit the vulnerability by
arbitrarily replacing file(s) invoked by service(s)/startup regkey impacted. File(s) will be executed with SYSTEM privileges. 

The application is subject to insecure folders permissions issue impacting the services 'MillewinTaskService' and 'PDS Server' for Windows deployed as part of
Millewin suite (Cartella clinica) software application, and the registy runkey responsible to start update (MilleUpdater) task. 
This allow an authorized but non-privileged local or remote user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the system. An attacker can easily take
advantage of the flaw arbitrarily replacing the impacted file(s) that will be executed during application startup or reboot. If successful, the malicious file(s)
would execute with the elevated privileges of the application.

The application also suffers from unquoted service path issues.


(1) Impacted executable on startup by regkey.
Any low privileged user can elevate their privileges abusing this scenario:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Value name:	MilleLiveUpdate
Value data:	"C:\Program Files (x86)\Millewin\MilleUpdater\MilleUpdater.exe"


(2) Impacted services.
Any low privileged user can elevate their privileges abusing any of these (also unquoted) services:

Millewin, operazioni pianificate    MillewinTaskService         C:\Program Files (x86)\Millewin\GestioneTaskService.exe     Auto
PDS Server                          PDS Server                  C:\Program Files (x86)\Millewin\WatchDogService.exe         Auto
