We've been dealing with this shit for the past 3 days.
How the fuck do you even create a security hole that lets unprivileged users accessing a client app get SYSTEM rights to the server?
Didn't even know that was technically possible even if you tried to program it.

Oh well, at least we'll have an up-to-date client device inventory and no more BYOD shenanigans at the end of it.
