Gift exchange
If you're looking for remote code execution against Microsoft Exchange, Spencer
McIntyre [https://github.com/zeroSteiner] crafted up a cool new module
[https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/pull/13014] targeting a .NET
serialization vulnerability in the Exchange Control Panel (ECP) web page.
Vulnerable versions of Exchange don't randomize keys on a per-installation
basis, resulting in reuse of the same validationKey and decryptionKey values.
With knowledge of these, an at

In this sequel, wvu [https://github.com/wvu-r7] recounts the R&D (in all its

SMB variant, you can read our blog post
