The version of Internet Explorer installed on the remote Windows host is missing Cumulative Security Update 3177356. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, the majority of which are remote code execution vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to visit a specially crafted website, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user.

The version of Microsoft Edge installed on the remote Windows host is missing Cumulative Security Update 3177358. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
