Synopsis

The remote host has an anti-exploitation application installed that is affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

Description

The Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit installed on the remote Windows host is a version prior to 1.05.1.1014. It is, therefore, affected by a out-of-bounds read flaw in the 'mbae.sys' driver when handling certain IOCTL calls.
