A free vulnerability scanner, “Eternal Blues“, was developed in late June by a security director Elad Erez to scan for Microsoft Windows SMB Server vulnerabilities, such as those exploited by recent WannaCry campaign and EternalBlue-based attacks.
Recent Eternal Blues scan statistics revealed nearly 11% and 48% of responsive hosts were vulnerable and still had SMB v1 enabled respectively, as reported by Help Net Security.
The free tool has helped raise awareness, find and patch vulnerable systems that could be targets of EternalBlue exploits.
