The remote Windows host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability in Windows Shell due to improper handling of objects in memory. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to visit a crafted website, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
