Microsoft Issues Out-of-Band Informational Advisory for Zero-
My systems are showing this (#153124) plugin. However on the MSRC link from the plugin page (https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2021-40444), it says that patches are available. Specifically for Server 2016, KB5005573. We have that installed on applicable systems and the finding is still showing after the patch is installed (remediation scans are not removing it). Does the plugin need to be updated? Plugins last downloaded this morning (9/23).
I am having the same issue with servers and workstations.
I made a test with a workstation that did not have September patch installed, I performed a scan and Nessus results came with:
153214 (Security Updates for Microsoft Internet Explorer OOB (Sept 2021)
153381 KB5005565: Windows 10 Version 2004 / Windows 10 Version 20H2 / Windows 10 Version 21H1 Security Update (September 2021)
I installed KB5005665 and performed the scan and results still show 153214.
The funny thing is that I performed the scan to another workstation that has installed September patch (KB5005665) and with that device does not show, I do not understand.
