"The Microsoft Exchange Server installed on the remote host
is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in
    Microsoft Exchange software when the software fails to
    properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who
    successfully exploited the vulnerability could run
    arbitrary code in the context of the System user. An
    attacker could then install programs; view, change, or
    delete data; or create new accounts. Exploitation of the
    vulnerability requires that a specially crafted email be
    sent to a vulnerable Exchange server. The security
    update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how
    Microsoft Exchange handles objects in memory.
    (CVE-2018-8302)

  - A tampering vulnerability exists when Microsoft Exchange
    Server fails to properly handle profile data. An
    attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability
    could modify a targeted user's profile data.
    (CVE-2018-8374)");
