Protection mechanism failure in Windows Mark of the Web (MOTW) allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature over a network.

The remote Windows host is missing security update 5055547. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in Windows Telephony Service allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code     over a network. (CVE-2025-27481)

  - Use after free in Windows LDAP - Lightweight Directory Access Protocol allows an unauthorized attacker to     execute code over a network. (CVE-2025-26663, CVE-2025-26670)

  - Sensitive data storage in improperly locked memory in Windows upnphost.dll allows an authorized attacker     to elevate privileges locally. (CVE-2025-26665)

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