CVE-2017-0145 [HIGH] Windows SMB Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Windows SMB Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Description: A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server handles certain requests. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the ability to execute code on the target server.
To exploit the vulnerability, in most situations, an authenticated attacker could send a specially crafted packet to a targeted SMBv1 server.
The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how SMBv1 handles these specially crafted requests.

This module is a port of the Equation Group ETERNALBLUE exploit, part of the FuzzBunch toolkit released by Shadow Brokers. There is a buffer overflow memmove operation in Srv!SrvOs2FeaToNt. The size is calculated in Srv!SrvOs2FeaListSizeToNt, with mathematical error where a DWORD is subtracted into a WORD. The kernel pool is groomed so that overflow is well laid-out to overwrite an SMBv1 buffer. Actual RIP hijack is later completed in srvnet!SrvNetWskReceiveComplete. This exploit, like the original may not trigger 100% of the time, and should be run continuously until triggered. It seems like the pool will get hot streaks and need a cool down period before the shells rain in again. The module will attempt to use Anonymous logi

By Jasper Manuel | June 12, 2018
In April 2018, FortiGuard Labs documented a Python-based malware we dubbed PyRoMine that takes advantage of the NSA exploit ETERNALROMANCE to distribute a Monero (XMR) miner. In that previous article, we explained that the malware was under development and predicted that new versions would arise in the future. Since then, we have been actively monitoring the PyRoMine malware activity, and we recently found a new version of this threat which now employs some obfuscation techniques.
We also predicted in the same article that there would be more malware authors that will use the NSA exploits to distribute their malware.
In this article, we will discuss the cha

In 2016, a group calling themselves the Shadow Brokers leaked a number of hacking tools and zero-day exploits attributed to the threat actors known as the Equation Group, a group which has has been tied to the National Security Agency’s (NSA) Tailored Access Operations unit. Then, on April 14, 2017, they released a set of weaponized exploits, including ETERNALBLUE and ETERNALROMANCE, that targeted versions of Windows XP/Vista/8.1/7/10 and Windows Server 2003/2008/2012/2016. These exploits took advantage of CVE-2017-0144 and CVE-2017-0145, which have been patched with the MS17-010 security bulletin released by Microsoft.

What Is WannaCry? Analyzing the Global Ransomware Attack
# What Is WannaCry? Analyzing the Global Ransomware Attack
### Key Takeaways
- WannaCry ransomware is a new variant of WanaCypt0r, which uses the ETERNALBLUE SMBv1 exploit to infect connected systems.
- Over 100 countries were affected by the ransomware.
- Three Bitcoin wallets are associated with the WannaCry 2.0 ransomware, which have received almost $26,000 in transfers since the beginning of the latest infection, a small sum considering the scope of damage.
- As of this posting, no money appears to have been moved from the Bitcoin wallets.
- Criminals behind WannaCry piggybacked on publicly dumped Equation Group exploits in an attempt to abuse free tools for easy money.
- We believe the criminals behind WannaCry didn’t intend for such a widespread attack, nor did they possess the exp

## Abstract
Patch prioritization is a crucial aspect of information systems security, and knowledge of which vulnerabilities were exploited in the wild is a powerful tool to help systems administrators accomplish this task. The analysis of social media for this specific application can enhance the results and bring more agility by collecting data from online discussions and applying machine learning techniques to detect real-world exploits. In this paper, we use a technique that combines Twitter data with public database information to classify vulnerabilities as exploited or not-exploited. We analyze the behavior of different classifying algorithms, investigate the influence of different antivirus data as ground truth, and experiment with various time window
