The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 49.0.2623.108. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2016_03_stable-channel-update_24 advisory.

  - The PageCaptureSaveAsMHTMLFunction::ReturnFailure function in     browser/extensions/api/page_capture/page_capture_api.cc in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.108 allows     attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering an error in     creating an MHTML document. (CVE-2016-1650)

  - The Array.prototype.concat implementation in builtins.cc in Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before     49.0.2623.108, does not properly consider element data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript     code. (CVE-2016-1646)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the RenderWidgetHostImpl::Destroy function in     content/browser/renderer_host/render_widget_host_impl.cc in the Navigation implementation in Google Chrome     before 49.0.2623.108 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified     other impact via unknown vectors. (CVE-2016-1647)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the GetLoadTimes function in renderer/loadtimes_extension_bindings.cc in     the Extensions implementation in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.108 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code. (CVE-2016-1648)

  - The Program::getUniformInternal function in Program.cpp in libANGLE, as used in Google Chrome before     49.0.2623.108, does not properly handle a certain data-type mismatch, which allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted shader     stages. (CVE-2016-1649)

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