You can also rename cmd.exe to RunAsP.exe to achieve same result. You
should never run application from untrusted location. Inability to check
file hash in this case is, may be, a leak of feature, not vulnerability.
A vulnerability could be if user can change test.rap to execute cmd.exe
with somebody's permissions.
