Description

This module triggers an arbitrary shared library load vulnerability
in Samba versions 3.5.0 to 4.4.14, 4.5.10, and 4.6.4. This module
requires valid credentials, a writeable folder in an accessible share,
and knowledge of the server-side path of the writeable folder. In
some cases, anonymous access combined with common filesystem locations
can be used to automatically exploit this vulnerability.
