The remote Windows host is missing security update 5022893. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities

  • Windows iSCSI Discovery Service Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2023-21803)

  • Microsoft PostScript Printer Driver Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2023-21684, CVE-2023-21801)

  • Microsoft Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2023-21689)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
