1. Description:
The League of Legends installer would install the League of Legends
screensaver along with a service. The service would be called
'lolscreensaver'. This particular service was misconfigured such that
the service binary path was unquoted. When the screensaver is
installed to 'C:\Riot Games', the issue is not exploitable. However,
during the installation process, users are able to specify a directory
to install to. When a user chooses to install this to say an external
drive, this becomes exploitable.
This was reported to Riot Games and has been rectified in the latest version.

3. Exploit:
Simply run 'sc qc lolscreensaver' and check for unquoted service path.
If the path is unquoted, then check the permissions of each directory
using space as a token.
Eg. D:\My Games\Hidden Files\Super Secure\Riot Games\service\service.exe
Do icacls on D:\, 'D:\My Games\', 'D:\My Games\Hidden Files\', 'D:\My
Games\Hidden Files\Super Secure\'. If you are able to write files to
any of these directories, it is exploitable.
If 'D:\My Games\' is writable, to exploit this issue, place a binary
to run as SYSTEM into the folder and named as 'Hidden.exe".
This is released on exploit-db as a means to make users aware. There was no way to automatically install a patch or update to fix this issue. It is recommended that the screensaver is uninstalled and redownloaded from the official website where this issue is now resolved.
