The remote Windows host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple elevation of privilege vulnerabilities due to improper validation of reparse points that have been set by sandbox applications. A local attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities, via a crafted application, to gain elevated privileges and take complete control of the affected system.
