An authenticated user could gain access to theroot filesystem by using an older version of smbclient and specifying anempty string as a share name.

NAME
ndrdump - DCE/RPC Packet Parser and Dumper SYNOPSIS
ndrdump [-c context] {pipe} {function} {in|out} {filename} ndrdump [pipe] ndrdump DESCRIPTION
ndrdump tries to parse the specified filename using Samba's parser for the specified pipe and function. The third argument should be either in or out, depending on whether the data should be parsed as a request or a reply. Running ndrdump without arguments will list the pipes for which parsers are available. Running ndrdump with one argument will list the functions that Samba can parse for the specified pipe. The primary function of ndrdump is debugging Samba's internal DCE/RPC parsing functions. The file being parsed is usually one exported by wiresharks "Export selected packet bytes" function. The context argument can be used to load context data from the request packet when parsing reply packets (such as array lengths). VERSION
This man page is correct for version 4.0 of the Samba suite. SEE ALSO

This utility is part of the Samba[1] suite, which is developed by the global Samba Team[2]. ndrdump was written by Andrew Tridgell. This manpage was written by Jelmer Vernooij. NOTES
