The Internet Explorer installation on the remote host is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • An spoofing vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer improperly handles URLs. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could trick a user by redirecting the user to a specially crafted website. The specially crafted website could either spoof content or serve as a pivot to chain an attack with other vulnerabilities in web services. (CVE-2019-0921)

  • A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft browsers access objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in a way that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2019-0940)

  • A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way the scripting engine handles objects in memory in Microsoft browsers. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user.
    (CVE-2019-0884, CVE-2019-0911, CVE-2019-0918)

  • An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer improperly handles objects in memory.
    An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the users system. (CVE-2019-0930)
