The remote Windows host is affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability due to the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) implementation not properly validating signatures. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to elevate an unprivileged domain user account to a domain administrator account.

ESKIMOROLL is one of multiple Equation Group vulnerabilities and exploits disclosed on 2017/04/14 by a group known as the Shadow Brokers.
