🔬SMB Enum

SMB (Server Message Block) - a network file and resource sharing protocol, based on a client-server model.

There are many variants of the SMB protocol like SMBv1, CIFS, SMBv2, SMBv2.1, SMBv3, and so on.

• e.g. Windows mapping and sharing drives as letter, uses SMB

Usually SMB can be found on ports 139 or 445 and nmap service and scripts enumeration (-sV, -sC) can find more info about the O.S. version.

After finding SMB through port scanning, gather more information with nmap.

sudo nmap -p445 -sV -sC -O <TARGET_IP>

🔬 Windows Recon: SMB Nmap Scripts

• Target IP: 10.2.24.25

• Enumeration of SMB protocol dialects, security level information, active sessions, Windows users and shares, domains, services.

ping 10.2.24.25
nmap 10.2.24.25

    PORT      STATE SERVICE
    135/tcp   open  msrpc
    139/tcp   open  netbios-ssn
    445/tcp   open  microsoft-ds
    3389/tcp  open  ms-wbt-server
    49152/tcp open  unknown
    49153/tcp open  unknown
    49154/tcp open  unknown
    49155/tcp open  unknown
    49167/tcp open  unknown

• SMB port 445 is open, use a specific nmap script to list the SMB server supported protocols and dialects

nmap -p445 --script smb-protocols 10.2.24.25

Host script results:
| smb-protocols: 
|   dialects: 
|     NT LM 0.12 (SMBv1) [dangerous, but default]
|     2.02
|     2.10
|     3.00
|_    3.02

smb-protocols

• Find SMB security level with another nmap script

nmap -p445 --script smb-security-mode 10.2.24.25

Host script results:
| smb-security-mode: 
|   account_used: guest
|   authentication_level: user
|   challenge_response: supported
|_  message_signing: disabled (dangerous, but default)

smb-security-mode

• Enumerate SMB logged in users

nmap -p445 --script smb-enum-sessions 10.2.24.25

# nmap logged in as the "guest" account
Host script results:
| smb-enum-sessions: 
|   Users logged in
|_    WIN-OMCNBKR66MN\bob since <unknown>
# bob is logged in without any credentials, since the "guest login" is enabled

smb-enum-sessions

• Use the provided user and password to enumerate the same login sessions

nmap -p445 --script smb-enum-sessions --script-args smbusername=administrator,smbpassword=smbserver_771 10.2.24.25

Host script results:
| smb-enum-sessions: 
|   Users logged in
|     WIN-OMCNBKR66MN\bob since 2023-02-13T20:37:26
|   Active SMB sessions
|_    ADMINISTRATOR is connected from \\10.10.24.4 for [just logged in, it's probably you], idle for [not idle]

smb-enum-sessions with credentials

• Enumerate SMB shares with a guest user

nmap -p445 --script smb-enum-shares 10.2.24.25

Host script results:

🔬 Samba Recon: Dictionary Attack

• Target IP: 192.174.58.3

• Linux SMB detailed enumeration using word lists

Word lists are lists of already known and used passwords, some of them leaked from breached websites or other services. Those passwords can be used as part of the attack via brute force tools.

In Kali Linux wordlists can be found inside /usr/share/wordlists directory.

gzip -d /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt.gz
# Unzip rockyou.txt list

ip -br -c a
	eth1@if108489   UP   192.174.58.2/24

• Target IP is 192.174.58.3

nmap 192.174.58.3
	139/tcp open  netbios-ssn
	445/tcp open  microsoft-ds

• Use smb_login metasploit module to bruteforce jane's password

msfconsole
