The Internet Explorer installation on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  • A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer accesses objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2019-0606)

  • A spoofing vulnerability exists when Microsoft browsers improperly handles specific redirects. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could trick a user into believing that the user was on a legitimate website. (CVE-2019-0654)

  • An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer improperly handles objects in memory.
    An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could test for the presence of files on disk. For an attack to be successful, an attacker must persuade a user to open a malicious website. (CVE-2019-0676)

  • An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the Windows kernel improperly initializes objects in memory.
    To exploit this vulnerability, an authenticated attacker could run a specially crafted application. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the user’s system. (CVE-2019-0663)
