The remote Windows host is missing security update 4577049.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when     DirectX improperly handles objects in memory. An     attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability     could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker     could then install programs; view, change, or delete     data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
    (CVE-2020-1053, CVE-2020-1308)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way     that the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) handles     objects in the 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.  (CVE-2020-1285)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     Windows GDI component improperly discloses the contents     of its memory.
