Description

This module is useful when checking an entire network of SMB hosts for the presence of a known file or directory. An example would be to scan all systems for the presence of antivirus or known malware outbreak. Typically you must set RPATH, SMBUser, SMBDomain and SMBPass to operate correctly.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use auxiliary/admin/smb/check_dir_file
msf auxiliary(check_dir_file) > show actions
    ...actions...
msf auxiliary(check_dir_file) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(check_dir_file) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(check_dir_file) > run 

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
