In 2020, when Windows 7 support ended, a massive leak of Windows XP and Server 2003 source code surfaced online, sparking concerns about potential vulnerabilities and offering a rare research resource for security professionals.
On December 14, Tencent's security intelligence team uncovered a “DriverLife” Trojan that exploited the high‑severity EternalBlue vulnerability to propagate like a worm, infecting up to 100,000 users within two hours, and detailed its infection chain, malicious payloads, and mitigation recommendations.
This tutorial walks you through installing Metasploit Framework, configuring WINE, setting up Python and fuzzbunch, scanning your network with Zmap, and finally executing the EternalBlue exploit using MSF and Doublepulsar, complete with command examples and troubleshooting tips.
The recent ONION and WNCRY ransomware outbreak, originating from leaked NSA tools like EternalBlue, rapidly infected over 70 nations, targeting hospitals, universities and other institutions, and this article explains the attack timeline, infection mechanisms, impact on Chinese campuses, and practical mitigation steps such as backups, patching, port blocking and domain filtering.
