Microsoft Windows 7 / Server 2008 R2 SMB Client Infinite Loop

Created
05/30/2018

Description

This module exploits a denial of service flaw in the Microsoft Windows SMB client on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. To trigger this bug, run this module as a service and forces a vulnerable client to access the IP of this system as an SMB server. This can be accomplished by embedding a UNC path (\HOST\share\something) into a web page if the target is using Internet Explorer, or a Word document otherwise.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
