Remote Desktop Client Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

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

  - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this issue to cause the affected component to     deny system or application services. (CVE-2021-41356,     CVE-2021-42274, CVE-2021-42284)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this to bypass authentication and execute     unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2021-26443,     CVE-2021-38666, CVE-2021-41378, CVE-2021-42276,     CVE-2021-42279)
