Not really.

They seem to be implying they got to running a command as SYSTEM from 7-zip, but, like, don't specify things like what security context 7-zip started as, or how a program running as non-admin got to a system security context, or like, how that's 7zip's fault and not the fault of the OS.

This is all very confusing.

Even if all they did was took that screen shot from process explorer and expanded it to include the user column, it would be like 99% more clear what the fuck is going on.
