physical read primitive failed

[Sohimaster]

physical read primitive failed for my host which is vulnerable as it shows this scanner https://github.com/ollypwn/SMBGhost is this normal?

[Sohimaster]

It's not working for every vulnerable host I have

[chompie1337]

I haven't been able to replicate this behavior. Can you check to see if this DoS script causes BSOD? Thank you

I get the same error. I will go back though set-up.

[johnseed]

I tried on 1809, 1903, 1909, 2004, all got same error, DoS script does cause BSOD

what is your testing enviorment? meaning, what hypervisor. it seems like the read primitive is not working, it could be that tcpip is not using DMA which the primitive depends on

I use Hyper-V on Windows Found some related pictures.

[leezp]

can you tell me how to fix it

Same here. Virtualbox W10 1903, physical read primitive failed!

[theLSA]

Same problem, virtualbox+win10 1903 business+python3.7+closed WAF+closed security center //not patch, blue screen with python2 by exploit.py, and https://github.com/eerykitty/CVE-2020-0796-PoC

[e-fin]

I am having the same error. I tried on a VMWARE Fusion VM running windows and a physical desktop running windows. I tried the physical host to see if it had to do with DMA but neither worked.

I tried the above DoS script and it doesent even blue screen either VM or physical desktop. I feel like I may be missing something

I used this to confirm they are both vulnerable but I don't know how reliable it is https://github.com/ollypwn/SMBGhost

It fails around if buff[4:8] != b"\xfeSMB":

buff[4:8] always equals b"\xfeSMB" and I'm unsure what it should equal to get the expected output

Edit: what was your lab setup when developing this? Im going to try virtualbox instead of VMWare fusion because ive seen another user have success with that hypervisor

[99hansling]

ive

Hello! I‘m having the same problem with you. Have you succeeded?

ive

Hello! I‘m having the same problem with you. Have you succeeded?

Not yet, i think the physical system im using for testing has a patch for the issue or the version is not vulnerable. Im really not sure tho

[e-fin]

@99hansling I Have solved the problem of the read primitive failing! I got it working on a VM running in VMWare fusion, I just had to download an older version of windows 10.

I downloaded version 1903 form here: https://tb.rg-adguard.net/public.php (the files are downloaded from Microsoft servers so its not sketchy)

Installed in a VM with no internet to make sure no automatic updates happened (idk if this was required but im new to windows internals so I was just bein safe). The exploit worked first try with no issue it seems like, adding my own shellcode now to verify.

Thanks @chompie1337 for an awesome POC and instructions for adding your own shellcode!

Was this with Windows 10 Home or Pro version of 1903? This is also known as 18362, correct? Thanks!

[NullBruce]

Same on a remote Windows 10 Pro 18362. EDIT: i tested it on a physical local windows 10 and it worked.

@wxh0000mm are you sure you can reach the windows 10 machine ? try: ping 192.168.83.130 if there is a respond try using https://github.com/ollypwn/SMBGhost with: python3 scanner.py 192.168.83.130 then post the result

[barrett092]

this is the error I continually get as well

[EdgeSync]

What i noted when testing, was that using python3 caused this error "physical read primitive failed" but using python2 triggered the bsod. Haven't looked into why yet, but try python2 if you are getting this error.

hi guys! can anyone help?
