A comprehensive solution that empowers even a one-person IT department to protect virtual and physical environments with a high degree of simplicity:

- 2. Vulnerability Details: -
ArcServe UDP for Windows installs various services. 
One of them is the "Arcserve UDP Update Service (CAARCUpdateSvc)" running as SYSTEM. 
This particular service has an insecurely quoted path. 
Other services where correctly quoted.
An attacker with write permissions on the root-drive or directory in the search path
could place a malicious binary and elevate privileges.

- 3. PoC Details: -
There are various ways to audit for this type of vulnerability. 
This proof-of-concept demonstrates both an automated and manual way.

Step 1: Identify the issue
Automatic: use the windows-privesc-check toolkit to audit the local system. 
Manual: run 'sc qc CAARCUpdateSvc' and confirm it has an unquoted service path.

Output: C:\Program Files\Arcserve\Unified Data Protection\Update Manager\ARCUpdate.exe
This should be: "C:\Program Files\Arcserve\Unified Data Protection\Update Manager\ARCUpdate.exe"

Step 2: Assess if exploitation is possible
To exploit this issue assess the permissions of each folder in the path using space as a token.

If any of the directories is writable for a non-administrative user, try to exploit the issue.

Step 3 Exploitation: 
Place a binary with the correct name in the vulnerable directory.
Reboot the system and validate your payload is executed with SYSTEM privileges

- 4. Vendor Mitigation: -
Create an update for the product which add quotes to the path.

While the update is being developed customers could apply a manual fix:
Open regedit, browse to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services 
Add quotes to the ImagePath value of the relevant service.

- 5. End-user Mitigation: -
