The Windows 11 installation on the remote host is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • An elevation of privilege vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to gain elevated privileges.
    (CVE-2021-41333, CVE-2021-43207, CVE-2021-43223, CVE-2021-43226, CVE-2021-43229, CVE-2021-43230, CVE-2021-43231, CVE-2021-43237, CVE-2021-43238, CVE-2021-43239, CVE-2021-43240, CVE-2021-43247, CVE-2021-43248, CVE-2021-43880, CVE-2021-43883, CVE-2021-43893)

  • An information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to disclose potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2021-43216, CVE-2021-43222, CVE-2021-43224, CVE-2021-43227, CVE-2021-43235, CVE-2021-43236)

  • A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause the affected component to deny system or application services. (CVE-2021-43219, CVE-2021-43228)

  • A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to bypass authentication and execute unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2021-43217, CVE-2021-43232, CVE-2021-43233, CVE-2021-43234)
