Summary: QNAP NetBak Replicator provides several options for copying files from your Windows computer to your NAS. By simplifying the backup
process, NetBak Replicator helps ensure that your files are safe even when your computer becomes unavailable.

Description: The application suffers from an unquoted search path issue impacting the service 'QVssService'. This could potentially allow an
authorized but non-privileged local user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the system. A successful attempt would require
the local user to be able to insert their code in the system root path undetected by the OS or other security applications where it could
potentially be executed during application startup or reboot. If successful, the local user’s code would execute with the elevated privileges
of the application.
