My OS is Windows 8.1 & Avasta 18.6.2349, lately I’m getting en error SMB:CVE-2017-0144[Expl], further search showed that it’s due to port 445 opened, I’m using Comodo firewall and I’ve closed the port 445 in Comodo, why I’m still getting this error, what else should I do to remove/avoid this threat? TIA.
