The problem is caused due to insecure default permissions ("Everyone" group with "Full Control") being set on sub-folders and their child objects installed in "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\EPSON\". This can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files in these folders, including two services (E_S40ST7.EXE and E_S40RP7.EXE) in the "EPW!3 SSRP" folder. SOLUTION: Grant only trusted users access to affected systems.
