The remote Windows host is missing security update 4565539 or cumulative update 4565524. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way     that DirectWrite handles objects in memory. An attacker     who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take     control of the affected system. An attacker could then     install programs; view, change, or delete data; or     create new accounts with full user rights. There are     multiple ways an attacker could exploit the     vulnerability, such as by convincing a user to open a     specially crafted document, or by convincing a user to     visit an untrusted webpage. The security update     addresses the vulnerability by correcting how     DirectWrite handles objects in memory. (CVE-2020-1409)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the     Windows Profile Service improperly handles file     operations. An attacker who successfully exploited this     vulnerability could gain elevated privileges.
    (CVE-2020-1360)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way     that the VBScript engine handles 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. An attacker who successfully exploited     the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the     current user.  (CVE-2020-1403)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the     Windows Remote Desktop Client when a user connects to a     malicious server. An attacker who successfully exploited     this vulnerability could execute arbitrary code on the     computer of the connecting client. An attacker could     then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or     create new accounts with full user rights.
    (CVE-2020-1374)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when the     Windows font library improperly handles specially     crafted fonts. For all systems except Windows 10, an     attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability     could execute code remotely. For systems running Windows     10, an attacker who successfully exploited the     vulnerability could execute code in an AppContainer     sandbox context with limited privileges and     capabilities. An attacker could then install programs;
    view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts     with full user rights. There are multiple ways an     attacker could exploit the vulnerability:
    (CVE-2020-1436)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the     Windows UPnP Device Host improperly handles memory.
    (CVE-2020-1354, CVE-2020-1430)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     Windows GDI component improperly discloses the contents     of its memory. An attacker who successfully exploited     the vulnerability could obtain information to further     compromise the users system. There are multiple ways an     attacker could exploit the vulnerability, such as by     convincing a user to open a specially crafted document,     or by convincing a user to visit an untrusted webpage.
    The security update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how the Windows GDI component handles objects     in memory. (CVE-2020-1468)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     Windows Graphics component improperly handles objects in     memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this     vulnerability could obtain information to further     compromise the users system. An authenticated attacker     could exploit this vulnerability by running a specially     crafted application. The update addresses the     vulnerability by correcting how the Windows Graphics     Component handles objects in memory. (CVE-2020-1351)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when     Group Policy Services Policy Processing improperly     handle reparse points. An attacker who successfully     exploited this vulnerability could overwrite a targeted     file that would normally require elevated permissions.
    (CVE-2020-1333)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when the     Windows font library improperly handles specially     crafted embedded fonts. An attacker who successfully     exploited the vulnerability could take control of the     affected system. An attacker could then install     programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new     accounts with full user rights.  (CVE-2020-1408)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the     Windows Modules Installer improperly handles file     operations. An attacker who successfully exploited this     vulnerability could gain elevated privileges.
    (CVE-2020-1346)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when     Windows improperly handles calls to Advanced Local     Procedure Call (ALPC). An attacker who successfully     exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in     the security context of the local system. An attacker     could then install programs; view, change, or delete     data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
    (CVE-2020-1396)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Skype for Business is accessed via Internet Explorer. An     attacker who exploited the vulnerability could cause the     user to place a call without additional consent, leading     to information disclosure of the user profile. For the     vulnerability to be exploited, a user must click a     specially crafted URL that prompts the Skype app.
    (CVE-2020-1432)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the     Windows ActiveX Installer Service improperly handles     memory.  (CVE-2020-1402)
