The remote Windows host is missing security update 5077181. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities

  - Protection mechanism failure in MSHTML Framework allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security     feature over a network. (CVE-2026-21513)

  - Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Desktop Window Manager allows an     authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. (CVE-2026-21519)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.
    (CVE-2026-21244, CVE-2026-21248)

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