2 273.26 ms 10.10.10.3The anonymous FTP login was a dead end as there was only an empty folder. Running further enumeration on the smb port shew very interesting results though:
SMB Exploits w/ Metasploit
Searching for a useful module in msfconsole, I tried multi/samba/usermap_script, which worked.
Then I found a CVE for the smb verison on the server, Samba 3.0.20-Debia. The according metasploit module gave me a root shell immediately. This could have been done with a PoC from searchsploit or exploitdb.
