The remote host is missing KB2942844. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :
A use-after-free error exists that could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0506)
A buffer overflow error exists that could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0507)
An unspecified error exists that could allow a security bypass leading to information disclosure.
(CVE-2014-0508)
An unspecified error exists that could allow cross- site scripting attacks. (CVE-2014-0509)
