Win32 Local Privilege Escalation when Stunnel installed as a System service

Hi, There is a trivial to exploit Local Privilege Escalation when stunnel is installed as a system service on windows. Who should I inform of this so a fix can be made? Thanks Ian --

If it's a security issue, I'd suggest contacting Michael directly first so he can get a fix out asap. If you're looking for a disclosure roadmap, I'd suggest using the RFPolicy. -- Brian Hatch "So, do you want to say anything here?" Systems and "I was thinking about it."

Me. 8-) I'm aware about this problem. It is easily possible to get localsystem privileges on Windows when stunnel is running as a service. Because: 1. There are thousands of other ways to do it. Windows uses Swiss Cheese Local Security Model. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_cheese 2. Virtually everyone uses an administrator account, so can gain localsystem privileges easily. The current status of this bug is WONTFIX, but I'm open to persuasion. Best regards, Mike
