The remote Windows host is missing security update 5000851 or cumulative update 5000841. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to bypass authentication and execute unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2021-26861, CVE-2021-26877, CVE-2021-26881, CVE-2021-26893, CVE-2021-26894, CVE-2021-26895, CVE-2021-26897)

  • An information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to disclose potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2021-24107, CVE-2021-26869)

  • An elevation of privilege vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to gain elevated privileges.
    (CVE-2021-1640, CVE-2021-26862, CVE-2021-26872, CVE-2021-26873, CVE-2021-26875, CVE-2021-26878, CVE-2021-26882, CVE-2021-26898, CVE-2021-26899, CVE-2021-26901, CVE-2021-27077)

  • An memory corruption vulnerability exists. An attacker can exploit this to corrupt the memory and cause unexpected behaviors within the system/application.
    (CVE-2021-26411)

  • A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause the affected component to deny system or application services. (CVE-2021-26896, CVE-2021-27063)
