"The Microsoft Exchange Server installed on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the August, 2025 security bulletin.

  - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor in Microsoft Exchange Server allows an
    unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a network. (CVE-2025-33051)

  - Improper input validation in Microsoft Exchange Server allows an authorized attacker to perform tampering
    over a network. (CVE-2025-25005)

  - Improper handling of additional special element in Microsoft Exchange Server allows an unauthorized
    attacker to perform spoofing over a network. (CVE-2025-25006)

  - Improper validation of syntactic correctness of input in Microsoft Exchange Server allows an unauthorized
    attacker to perform spoofing over a network. (CVE-2025-25007)

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