The version of Microsoft Edge installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 118.0.2088.109 / 119.0.2151.72. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the November 16, 2023 advisory.
Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2023-36008)
Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) Spoofing Vulnerability (CVE-2023-36026)
Use after free in Garbage Collection in Google Chrome prior to 119.0.6045.159 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-5997)
Use after free in Navigation in Google Chrome prior to 119.0.6045.159 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-6112)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
