Introduction

Insecure service permissions can create serious security risks in Windows environments.
These permissions are defined through Access Control Lists (ACLs), which determine what actions users can perform on a service.

Note

⚠️ Potential rabbit hole:
If you can modify a service configuration but do not have permission to stop/start the service, privilege escalation may fail.
Always confirm you have sufficient access before attempting exploitation.
