from a remote location. Shutting down a system may lead to a Denial of
Service for the target host.

	Microsoft Windows systems.

--
Attack Scenarios:
An attacker may be able to manipulate a target system using SMB. The
attacker may gain complete control over the affected system.

--
Ease of Attack:
Simple.

--
False Positives:
None known.

--
False Negatives:
None Known.

--
Corrective Action:
Check the host for signs of system compromise.

Turn off file and print sharing on the target host.

Use a packet filtering firewall to disallow SMB access to the host from
sources external to the protected network.

Disallow remote registry manipulation.
