Metasploit Exploitation Scenarios – Scenario 3 Astaro Security Gateway & Dr.Web Antivirus

Third scenario of the Metasploit Exploitation Scenarios.

Here, the user is a standard user, protected by 5 countermeasures :

– Firewall rules how limit the outbound connexions only on special ports.
– Transparent HTTP/S Proxy for web surfing.
– Dual antivirus (Avira / Clamav) scanning for web surfing (useless in the case, due to the Astaro bugs).
– Dr.Web Antivirus on the target Windows XP.
– Windows Firewall on the target Windows XP.
