The remote Windows host is missing KB3201860. It is, therefore, affected by an arbitrary code execution vulnerability due to a use-after-free error. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to visit a website containing specially crafted Flash content, to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
