The Microsoft Visual Studio Products are missing security updates. They are, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

  • A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause the affected component to deny system or application services. (CVE-2024-21386, CVE-2024-21404)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
