Actually, I just think the exploit may only target one of the flaw  
fixed in ms04-031 (I didn't even know a flaw in the RPC interface was  
fixed prior to looking at the exploit code).
 From what I remember a stack overflow can be exploited anonymously  
on the TCP port 139 using the NDDE protocol (a netbios session must  
be negotiated first).
