Initiate SMB connections to capture NetNTLM challenge/response and crack to clear-text password. Access arbitrary files from the filesystem with the same permission as the user account running Plex. Unauthenticated attackers on the same LAN can use this vulnerability to: The XML parsing engine for Plex Media Server's SSDP/UPNP functionality is vulnerable to an XML External Entity Processing (XXE) attack.
