Use the test below and write conclusion for in 200 words LLMNR Poisoning and SMB Relay Attacks. The Linked Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) is a technique used to identify a system when DNS fails to do so on local network. It sends out a multicast message to all systems listening on the local network and waits for a response. This tool utilizes username and NTLMv2 hash for verification of credentials. It’s an internal attack where impersonator can intercept and act as that host then gain usernames and hashes and crack weak passwords to utilize it for their exploits. Server Message Block (SMB) is used for sharing access to files, printers, serial ports, and other resources on a network. It was mainly used for Windows, however Linux and macOS also have components for connecting to SMB resources. In SMB relay attack, attackers capture valid authentication session and then relay it thereby obtaining access. Instead of cracking the hashes, attackers can relay these hashes for unauthorized access to other machines. Furthermore, these attackers can gain access and dump SAM hashes from windows machine. SMB Signing must be disabled or not enforced. By default, SMB signing is not enforced Windows workstations.
