T-024: Vulnerability in Server Message Block (SMB)

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) Protocol handles NTLM credentials when a user connects to an attacker's SMB server. This vulnerability allows an attacker to replay the user's credentials back to them and execute code in the context of the logged-on user. The risk is MEDIUM. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system.
