    Interesting article! I wonder how many cybercriminals have his Nbtool and are just waiting for exploit code to spread around!

    NETBIOS requests, of course, are carried out via Ports 135 - 139, which are used for those set up for network file sharing. Also port 445

    Otherwise, closing these ports at the firewall prevents the attack:

    Of course, a patch is now released!
