  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the Chakra scripting engine handles objects
    in memory in Microsoft Edge, aka "Chakra Scripting Engine Memory Corruption Vulnerability." This affects
    Microsoft Edge, ChakraCore. This CVE ID is unique from CVE-2018-0979, CVE-2018-0980, CVE-2018-0990,
    CVE-2018-0993, CVE-2018-0994, CVE-2018-0995. (CVE-2018-1019)

The remote Windows host is missing security update 4093112.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An vulnerability exists within microprocessors utilizing     speculative execution and indirect branch prediction,     which may allow an attacker with local user access to     disclose information via a side-channel analysis.
    (CVE-2017-5715, CVE-2017-5753, CVE-2017-5754)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when     Windows improperly handles objects in memory and     incorrectly maps kernel memory.  (CVE-2018-1009)

  - A security feature bypass exists when Device Guard     incorrectly validates an untrusted file. An attacker who     successfully exploited this vulnerability could make an     unsigned file appear to be signed. Because Device Guard     relies on the signature to determine the file is non-     malicious, Device Guard could then allow a malicious     file to execute. In an attack scenario, an attacker     could make an untrusted file appear to be a trusted     file. The update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how Device Guard handles untrusted files.
    (CVE-2018-0966, CVE-2018-1035)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way     that the Chakra scripting engine handles objects in     memory in Microsoft Edge. 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-2018-0979, CVE-2018-0980,     CVE-2018-0990, CVE-2018-0993, CVE-2018-0994,     CVE-2018-0995, CVE-2018-1019)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the way that     Windows SNMP Service handles malformed SNMP traps. An     attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability     could cause a target system to stop responding. Note     that the denial of service condition would not allow an     attacker to execute code or to elevate user privileges.
    However, the denial of service condition could prevent     authorized users from using system resources. The     security update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how Windows SNMP Service processes SNMP     traps. (CVE-2018-0967)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     Windows kernel improperly handles objects in memory. An     attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability     could obtain information to further compromise the users     system.  (CVE-2018-0960)

An     attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability     could execute arbitrary code and take control of an     affected system. An attacker could then install     programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new     accounts with full user rights.  (CVE-2018-1008)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     scripting engine does not properly handle objects in     memory in Internet Explorer. An attacker who     successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain     information to further compromise the users system.
    (CVE-2018-0987)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Microsoft     JET Database Engine that could allow remote code     execution on an affected system. An attacker who     successfully exploited this vulnerability could take     control of an affected system. An attacker could then     install programs; view, change, or delete data; or     create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose     accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the     system could be less impacted than users who operate     with administrative user rights.  (CVE-2018-1003)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the     way that the Windows Kernel handles objects in memory.
    An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability     could execute code with elevated permissions.
    (CVE-2018-0963)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in Remote     Desktop Protocol (RDP) when an attacker connects to the     target system using RDP and sends specially crafted     requests. An attacker who successfully exploited this     vulnerability could cause the RDP service on the target     system to stop responding.  (CVE-2018-0976)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way     that the scripting engine handles objects in memory in     Internet Explorer. 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-2018-0988, CVE-2018-0996, CVE-2018-1001)

(CVE-2018-1010,     CVE-2018-1012, CVE-2018-1013, CVE-2018-1015,     CVE-2018-1016)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when     Internet Explorer improperly accesses 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.
