The remote Windows host contains a version of the Windows Media Format Runtime that is affected by multiple issues :

The ASF parser has an invalid free vulnerability. A remote attacker could exploit this by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted ASF file, which could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2009-2498)
The MP3 parser has a memory corruption vulnerability. A remote attacker could exploit this by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted MP3 file, which could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2009-2499)

Note that this patch is not available for unsupported Service Packs.
