"The remote Windows host is missing security update 4525241.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
- A security feature bypass vulnerability exists when
Windows Netlogon improperly handles a secure
communications channel. An attacker who successfully
exploited the vulnerability could downgrade aspects of
the connection allowing for further modification of the
transmission. (CVE-2019-1424)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the
Windows kernel improperly handles objects in memory. An
attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability
could obtain information to further compromise the users
system. (CVE-2019-11135)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the
way Windows Error Reporting (WER) handles objects in
memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this
vulnerability could obtain information to further
compromise the users system. (CVE-2019-1374)
- A local elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in
how splwow64.exe handles certain calls. An attacker who
successfully exploited the vulnerability could elevate
privileges on an affected system from low-integrity to
medium-integrity. This vulnerability by itself does not
allow arbitrary code execution; however, it could allow
arbitrary code to be run if the attacker uses it in
combination with another vulnerability (such as a remote
code execution vulnerability or another elevation of
privilege vulnerability) that is capable of leveraging
the elevated privileges when code execution is
attempted. The security update addresses the
vulnerability by ensuring splwow64.exe properly handles
these calls.. (CVE-2019-1380)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists due to a
race condition in Windows Subsystem for Linux. An
attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability
could execute code with elevated permissions.
(CVE-2019-1416)
- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way
that the scripting engine handles objects in memory in
Internet Explorer. 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-2019-1429)
- A security feature bypass vulnerability exists where a
NETLOGON message is able to obtain the session key and
sign messages. (CVE-2019-1384)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the
Windows Graphics Component improperly handles objects in
memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this
vulnerability could run processes in an elevated
context. (CVE-2019-1407, CVE-2019-1433, CVE-2019-1435,
CVE-2019-1438)
- An information vulnerability exists when Windows Modules
Installer Service improperly discloses file information.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability could allow
the attacker to read the contents of a log file on disk.
(CVE-2019-1418)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the
Windows User Profile Service (ProfSvc) improperly
handles symlinks. An attacker who successfully exploited
this vulnerability could delete files and folders in an
elevated context. (CVE-2019-1454)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the
Windows Certificate Dialog when it does not properly
enforce user privileges. An attacker who successfully
exploited this vulnerability could run processes in an
elevated context. An attacker could then install
programs; view, change or delete data. (CVE-2019-1388)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the
Windows TCP/IP stack improperly handles IPv6 flowlabel
filled in packets. An attacker who successfully
exploited this vulnerability could obtain information to
further compromise the users system. (CVE-2019-1324)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists when Microsoft
Hyper-V Network Switch on a host server fails to
properly validate input from a privileged user on a
guest operating system. An attacker who successfully
exploited the vulnerability could cause the host server
to crash. (CVE-2019-0712, CVE-2019-1309)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists when Windows
improperly handles objects in memory. An attacker who
successfully exploited the vulnerability could cause a
target system to stop responding. (CVE-2018-12207,
CVE-2019-1391)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in
Windows when the Win32k component fails to properly
handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully
exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in
kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs;
view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts
with full user rights. (CVE-2019-1393, CVE-2019-1394,
CVE-2019-1395, CVE-2019-1396, CVE-2019-1408)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in
Windows Installer because of the way Windows Installer
handles certain filesystem operations. (CVE-2019-1415)
- A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
Windows Hyper-V Network Switch on a host server fails to
properly validate input from an authenticated user on a
guest operating system. (CVE-2019-0719, CVE-2019-0721)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when
DirectWrite improperly discloses the contents of its
memory. An attacker who successfully exploited the
vulnerability could obtain information to further
compromise the users system. There are multiple ways an
attacker could exploit the vulnerability, such as by
convincing a user to open a specially crafted document,
or by convincing a user to visit an untrusted webpage.
The security update addresses the vulnerability by
correcting how DirectWrite handles objects in memory.
(CVE-2019-1411)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the
Windows Servicing Stack allows access to unprivileged
file locations. An attacker who successfully exploited
the vulnerability could potentially access unauthorized
files. (CVE-2019-1381)
- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way
that the VBScript engine handles objects in memory. 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-2019-1390)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the
Windows GDI component improperly discloses the contents
of its memory. An attacker who successfully exploited
the vulnerability could obtain information to further
compromise the users system. There are multiple ways an
attacker could exploit the vulnerability, such as by
convincing a user to open a specially crafted document,
or by convincing a user to visit an untrusted webpage.
The security update addresses the vulnerability by
correcting how the Windows GDI component handles objects
in memory. (CVE-2019-1439)
- A remote code execution vulnerability exists when the
Windows Jet Database Engine improperly handles objects
in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this
vulnerability could execute arbitrary code on a victim
system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by
enticing a victim to open a specially crafted file. The
update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way
the Windows Jet Database Engine handles objects in
memory. (CVE-2019-1406)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the
Windows Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) service
improperly allows COM object creation. An attacker who
successfully exploited this vulnerability could run
arbitrary code with elevated system privileges. An
attacker could then install programs; view, change, or
delete data; or create new accounts with full user
rights. (CVE-2019-1405)
- A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
Windows Hyper-V on a host server fails to properly
validate input from an authenticated user on a guest
operating system. (CVE-2019-1389, CVE-2019-1397,
CVE-2019-1398)
- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in
Microsoft Windows when the Windows Adobe Type Manager
Library improperly handles specially crafted OpenType
fonts. For all systems except Windows 10, an attacker
who successfully exploited the vulnerability could
execute code remotely. For systems running Windows 10,
an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability
could execute code in an AppContainer sandbox context
with limited privileges and capabilities. An attacker
could then install programs; view, change, or delete
data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
There are multiple ways an attacker could exploit the
vulnerability, such as by either convincing a user to
open a specially crafted document, or by convincing a
user to visit a webpage that contains specially crafted
embedded OpenType fonts. The update addresses the
vulnerability by correcting how the Windows Adobe Type
Manager Library handles OpenType fonts. (CVE-2019-1419,
CVE-2019-1456)

Hyper-V on a host server fails to properly validate
input from a privileged user on a guest operating
system. (CVE-2019-1399)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the
Windows Data Sharing Service improperly handles file
operations. An attacker who successfully exploited this
vulnerability could run processes in an elevated
context. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by
running a specially crafted application on the victim
system. The update addresses the vulnerability by
correcting the way the Windows Data Sharing Service
handles file operations. (CVE-2019-1383, CVE-2019-1417)
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when
ActiveX Installer service may allow access to files
without proper authentication. An attacker who
successfully exploited the vulnerability could
potentially access unauthorized files. (CVE-2019-1382)
