About the project
PoC for a local privilege escalation in the Steam Client Service: abuses a genuine Valve-signed VDF install script with a caller-controlled install root to make the SYSTEM service launch an arbitrary executable without a UAC prompt.
Useful for
- Test the Steam Client Service vulnerability on your own Windows lab machine
- Reproduce obtaining a SYSTEM shell from a standard user without UAC
- Assess whether to update Steam or restrict the service in a corporate environment

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
