The version of Microsoft Edge installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 116.0.1938.62. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the August 25, 2023 advisory.

  • Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability (CVE-2023-36741)

  • Out of bounds memory access in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-4427)

  • Out of bounds memory access in CSS in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-4428)

  • Use after free in Loader in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-4429)

  • Use after free in Vulkan in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-4430)

  • Out of bounds memory access in Fonts in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium) (CVE-2023-4431)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
