This host is missing an important security update for Microsoft .NET Framework Multiple Vulnerabilities (KB5027537). Multiple flaws exist due to MSDIA SDK and WPF vulnerabilities that could allow remote code execution, privilege escalation, and denial of service. Microsoft .NET Framework versions 3.5, 4.8, and 4.8.1 on Windows 10, version 21H2 are affected. The vendor has released updates
