What it does

Exploiting Ms17 010 Eternalblue Vulnerability is an agent skill from mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills. Detects and exploits MS17-010 (EternalBlue), a critical remote code execution flaw in Microsoft's SMBv1 implementation, using Nmap's ms-17-010 NSE script for detection and Metasploit's ms17010eternalblue/ms17010psexec modules for exploitation. Use during authorized red-team engagements or penetration tests against legacy Windows environments with unpatched SMBv1 to gain remote code execution.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/template.md`, `references/api-reference.md` and `references/standards.md`).

It sits in Security, covering Penetration testing and Red teaming and adversary simulation. It works with Metasploit and Nmap. The repository describes itself as: 817 structured cybersecurity skills for AI agents · Mapped to 6 frameworks: MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS, D3FEND, NIST AI RMF & MITRE F3 (Fight Fraud) · agentskills.io…. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Penetration testing
  • Tasks that involve Red teaming and adversary simulation

Example prompts

  • “s SMBv1 implementation, using Nmap”
  • “Use the exploiting-ms17-010-eternalblue-vulnerability skill to detect and exploits MS17-010 (EternalBlue), a critical remote code execution flaw in…”
  • “/exploiting-ms17-010-eternalblue-vulnerability”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Vulnerability Scanning
  2. Exploitation
  3. Post-Exploitation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 54a7988. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Exploiting Ms17 010 Eternalblue Vulnerability loads about 963 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 111 tokens; SKILL.md has 348 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~111
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~963
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Exploiting MS17-010 EternalBlue Vulnerability

Overview

MS17-010 (EternalBlue) is a critical vulnerability in Microsoft's SMBv1 implementation that allows remote code execution. Originally discovered by the NSA and leaked by the Shadow Brokers in 2017, it was used in the WannaCry and NotPetya ransomware campaigns. Despite patches being available since March 2017, many organizations still have unpatched systems, making it a viable red team exploitation vector especially in legacy environments.

When to Use

  • When performing authorized security testing that involves exploiting ms17 010 eternalblue vulnerability
  • When analyzing malware samples or attack artifacts in a controlled environment
  • When conducting red team exercises or penetration testing engagements
  • When building detection capabilities based on offensive technique understanding

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with red teaming concepts and tools
  • Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
  • Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
  • Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

MITRE ATT&CK Mapping

  • T1210 - Exploitation of Remote Services
  • T1190 - Exploit Public-Facing Application
  • T1569.002 - System Services: Service Execution

Workflow

Phase 1: Vulnerability Scanning
  1. Scan target networks for SMB port 445
  2. Check for SMBv1 protocol support
  3. Run MS17-010 vulnerability check (Nmap NSE script or Metasploit auxiliary)
  4. Document vulnerable systems with OS version and patch level
Phase 2: Exploitation
  1. Select appropriate exploit variant based on target OS
  2. Configure exploit payload (Meterpreter, Cobalt Strike beacon, custom shellcode)
  3. Execute exploit against confirmed vulnerable target
  4. Verify code execution and establish session
Phase 3: Post-Exploitation
  1. Establish persistence on compromised system
  2. Dump credentials from memory
  3. Use compromised host as pivot point
  4. Document exploitation evidence

Tools and Resources

Detection Indicators

  • IDS/IPS signatures for EternalBlue exploit traffic
  • SMBv1 negotiation from unusual source hosts
  • Event ID 7045: New service installation after exploitation
  • Anomalous named pipe activity on SMB
  • Large SMB write requests characteristic of buffer overflow

Validation Criteria

  • Vulnerable systems identified via scanning
  • Exploitation achieved on authorized target
  • Code execution confirmed with session established
  • Post-exploitation activities documented
  • Remediation recommendations provided
