CVE-2022-35804: SMB Client and Server Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
How could an attacker exploit the vulnerability?
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the Microsoft Server Message Block 3.1.1 (SMBv3) protocol handles certain requests. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the ability to execute code on the target system. This vulnerability can be exploited through two different vectors:
For the vulnerability to be exploited on the SMB Client, an unauthenticated attacker would first need to configure a malicious SMBv3 server and convince a user to connect to it by enticing them to click a specially crafted link.
**For the vulnerability to be exploited on the SMB Server **, an authenticated attacker could send specially crafted packets from an SMB Client to a targeted SMBv3 Server.
