The version of Windows Installer Service installed on the remote Windows host is missing Cumulative Security Update 3072630. It is, therefore, affected by an elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Windows Installer service due to improperly running customized action scripts. A local attacker, using specially crafted code that gets executed by a vulnerable .msi package, can exploit this vulnerability to gain elevated privileges.
