## What it is
A Python proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2019-0708 (BlueKeep), a pre-authentication remote code execution vulnerability in Microsoft RDP affecting older Windows systems. It demonstrates the memory corruption via crafted RDP packets and can be extended with payloads.

## Use cases
- test if a Windows host is vulnerable to BlueKeep
- demonstrate CVE-2019-0708 RCE in a lab
- study pre-auth RDP memory corruption exploitation
- verify RDP patching on legacy Windows machines
- build a custom exploit from a BlueKeep PoC

## When to choose
- you need a working PoC for CVE-2019-0708 in an authorized test environment
- you're researching RDP pre-auth exploitation techniques
- you want a lightweight Python base to extend into a full exploit

## When to avoid
- scanning modern patched Windows systems (not affected)
- production networks without explicit authorization
- you need a maintained, supported exploitation framework like Metasploit
- you need built-in payloads - this PoC ships without them

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
