Print Spooler Remote DLL Injection
Description
The print spooler service can be abused by an authenticated remote attacker to load a DLL through a crafted DCERPC request, resulting in remote code execution as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. This module uses the MS-RPRN vector which requires the Print Spooler service to be running.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
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.
