SMB is windows file server in which it shares files and folders over the network to any other windows computer connecting to it.

A common SMB server is called SAMBA which is usually used on Linux to provide comparability with windows.

When you connect to a public hotspot you can usually scan the entire network and access most laptops files via this feature because people are fucking stupid.

Note: When you plug in your computer to a network for a first time the dialog box that asks if this is a public network or a home/office network adjusts the SMB settings so that they are not visible to that particular network among other things.

ok thanks. i remember that it asks for 3 options, home network, public, and one other? like you said.

I always choose public network, even if its a home network. fuk it, i think if you choose public network, then it makes it the most secure, right?

Nice, I'm safe then thanks.

For Windows 7 (Security only) update, you want KB4019263. You also need to run Windows updates (manual) and get the .NET Framework update.


/e I did both the Security only and the .NET framework...both worked fine.

Yeah, this isn't just a Windows 10 (1703) thing. It affects systems dating back to XP. This exploit is deemed so serious that Microsoft actually released an out-of-lifecycle update for Windows XP/Vista/8/2003

thanks nsa/cia
