Synopsis

The remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote Windows host is missing security update 5031356. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities

- The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023. (CVE-2023-44487)
- Microsoft WDAC OLE DB provider for SQL Server Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2023-36577)

- Windows IIS Server Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability (CVE-2023-36434)

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