The remote Windows host is missing security update 5120418. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in Windows DNS allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
    (CVE-2026-62878)

  - Use after free in Windows Deployment Services allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a     network. (CVE-2026-62893)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows iSCSI Target Service allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code     over a network. (CVE-2026-65791)

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

The Microsoft .NET Framework installation on the remote host is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Incorrect authorization in .NET Framework allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a     network. (CVE-2026-62872)

  - Relative path traversal in .NET Framework allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
    (CVE-2026-65810)

  - Out-of-bounds write in .NET allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally. (CVE-2026-70354)

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