Microsoft NTLM is an authentication protocol used on networks that includes systems running the Windows operating system and stand-alone systems. Despite Microsoft's implementation of Kerberos, NTLM is still in use in order to support older systems. Many exploits in the past targeted Microsoft Office and Windows OS internal functions in order to cause the leaking of Windows users' NTLM hashes, which can then be cracked and disclose the original passwords. Are those the only products vulnerable to NTLM credential theft? Find out how PDF files can be weaponized to automatically achieve NTLM hash leaks with no user interaction.
