Potential impact

An attacker can escalate privileges to NT Authority\System on the OS where RICOH Streamline NX PC Client is installed. The Ricoh Streamline NX client application also installs an H2 instance with hardcoded credentials that runs as NT Authority\System, even though it can only be accessed locally. By connecting to the H2 instance and abusing the "CREATE ALIAS" functionality, it is possible to execute arbitrary programs as NT Authority\System.
