∗∗∗ Abusing Microsoft Access “Linked Table” Feature to Perform NTLM Forced Authentication Attacks ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
1. Microsoft Access (part of the Office suite) has a “linking to remote SQL Server tables” feature. 
2. This feature can be abused by attackers to automatically leak the Windows user’s NTLM tokens to any attacker-controlled server, via any TCP port, such as port 80. 
3. The attack can be launched as long as the victim opens an .accdb or .mdb file. In fact, any more-common Office file type (such as a .rtf ) can work as well 
4. This technique allows the attacker to bypass existing Firewall rules designed to block NTLM information stealing initiated by external attacks.
