2026 Q4 Vulnerability Scan Follow Up
Good evening Tiffanie, Your quarterly vulnerability scan report has been completed and is available in your client folder. Recommended remediation priorities (Top Ten): Open Top Ten report Complete report package: Open complete report package The folder contains the following reports: • Pending Remediation EPSS Score Report - classifies vulnerabilities by Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS), which measures the likelihood of exploitation within 30 days (scale 0-1.0, with 1.0 being most critical). • All Vulnerabilities Report - agent-detected vulnerabilities on managed assets (applications, OS patches, and related findings), from critical to low severity. • Executive Summary Report - a high-level overview of your security posture and network information. • External Scan - detected vulnerabilities and services exposed to the internet. • Suppressed Vulnerabilities Report - vulnerabilities that have been suppressed (e.g., false positives or accepted risk) and will not appear on future remediation lists. Not all vulnerabilities may be feasible to remediate depending on business or technical constraints. Schedule Time With Me Note: Remediation tickets have been generated for items covered under your RMIT+ agreement. Third-party items not covered under the agreement will not be remediated unless we discuss them and a quote has been generated. To schedule a discussion, please use the scheduling link above. We appreciate your commitment to security. Addressing these vulnerabilities is essential for maintaining the protection of your systems. Sincerely, Chris Knospe
2026 Q4 Remaining remediations
Good evening Tiffanie, Following the quarterly vulnerability review for Shoreview Pediatrics, the items below still need remediation.

Vulnerability Remediation - Windows 11 (all versions) - Updates Required
Vulnerability Remediation - Windows 11 (all versions) - Updates Required
Product/System: Windows 11 (all versions)
Affected Systems Count: 1
Finding summary:
Windows 11 (all versions) is missing required updates on the listed hosts.
Apply missing quality/security updates via RMM or Windows Update (or Intune).
Stay on the current Windows version. Coordinate a maintenance window before reboots.
CVE references:
CVE-2026-33824
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33824
Vendor advisory:
https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-33824
Additional CVEs (1456 more) are listed in the Client Folder report.
Minimum version to reach:
- Apply Windows Update KB5121003 (or the latest available).
Affected Systems:
- LaureeKlees.int.shoreviewpediatrics (lklees) - 172.16.16.103 [10.0.26100] [1450 vulns]
Quick-check each host first.
Confirm the OS/build on the host matches this finding.
Then stop (escalate to Security as a false positive or no further action) if:
- already at/above the minimum version to reach (build/KB)
- already on the latest quality/security updates for the current Windows version
- the vendor documents this CVE as not applicable or already fixed
Include hostnames, current build, what you verified, and any vendor documentation link.
A fully updated host can still show a CVE until the vendor releases a fix. Do not force a feature upgrade.
Otherwise choose update, remove, or suppress below and document it in the ticket.
Remediation (pick the most appropriate option):
A. Apply missing OS quality/security updates (default)
- Apply the build/KB listed under Minimum version to reach (or the latest available) via RMM or Windows Update (or Intune).
- Prefer current vendor quality/security updates for the host's existing Windows version.
B. Host not needed - decommission / rebuild
- Only if the host should not exist; do not uninstall the OS.
C. Cannot patch - escalate to Security for suppression
- Examples: OS update channel / RMM broken after troubleshooting, client defers patching after verification, or no approved path yet.
- Do not use suppress only because the host is on an older feature build - feature upgrades need explicit client approval.
- Suppression only stops tracking. It does not patch or remove the vulnerability. Residual risk stays until a real fix.
- Client must accept or be notified. Record discussion notes to the client (who, what, hosts, and that risk remains).
Client coordination - READ BEFORE UPDATING:
Agree a maintenance window before reboots, feature upgrades, or broad patch pushes. If a user may be interrupted, schedule after hours or contact the client first.
If another vendor manages this application, device, workstation, or server: that vendor or the service owner must perform the update. If they are unable or unwilling, escalate to Security for suppression.
===== TECHNICAL GUIDANCE (do this) =====
- Apply missing Windows updates via RMM or Windows Update (or Intune)
- If this host is a VM, take a pre-update snapshot so you can revert if there are issues.
- Reboot if Windows Update requires it
- After update, confirm the host has the latest quality/security updates for its current Windows version
- If it is already fully updated and still flagged: escalate to Security as no further action - do not force a feature upgrade

Quick-check each host first.
Then stop (escalate to Security as a false positive) if the redistributable/runtime is not present or is already at/above the minimum version to reach for that major version.
Include hostnames and what you found.
Otherwise choose update, remove, or suppress below and document it in the ticket.
Remediation (pick the most appropriate option):
A. Update (usual path when keeping the major version)
- Install the updated package for the same major version to the version listed under Minimum version to reach (or the latest available).
B. Not needed / not in use - uninstall or remove
- Only after dependency testing proves the major version is unused (test machine; uninstall one major version at a time).
C. Vulnerable major version is required - escalate to Security for suppression
- Dependency testing showed apps need this major version, and it remains (or will remain) vulnerable.
- Suppression only stops tracking. It does not patch or remove the vulnerability. Residual risk stays until a real fix.
- Client must accept or be notified. Record discussion notes to the client (who, what, hosts, and that risk remains).
Client coordination - READ BEFORE UPDATING:
If this update may interrupt a user, schedule after hours or contact the client first.
If another vendor manages this application, device, workstation, or server: that vendor or the service owner must perform the update. If they are unable or unwilling, escalate to Security for suppression.
===== TECHNICAL GUIDANCE (do this) =====
- .NET Framework and modern .NET (.NET 5+) are not interchangeable
- An app built on one major version is tied to that version - removing it will break the app.
- Update each runtime line via WU/vendor installer; uninstall only when unused and verified
- If this host is a VM, take a pre-update snapshot so you can revert if there are issues.
- .NET 6: out of support - uninstall if unused and verified, or escalate cannot-update
- .NET 8 (LTS): update runtime to the reported target within the 8.x line (Windows Update or runtime installer)

- Confirm which Java runtime is installed (vendor + major version, e.g. Oracle 8 / Temurin 11) on each host
- Inventory apps that require that major version before changing anything
- Primary: update within the same major version line to the Minimum version to reach target (or latest security update for that line)
- Oracle Java: Oracle installer / Java Update / enterprise package per client license
- OpenJDK / Temurin-style: Adoptium Temurin or the distro already in use (do not switch vendors without app vendor approval)
- Prefer RMM/automated patching when deployed; else vendor MSI via ScreenConnect
- If unused after dependency check: uninstall that runtime
- Verify java -version / Programs and Features and dependent app startup after change
- Java 8: stay on the existing 8u line unless the app vendor requires a newer major

- Update to version 16.1 (or the latest available).
Affected Systems:
- IntergyServer.int.shoreviewpediatrics - 172.16.16.10 [28 vulns]
Quick-check each host first.
Then stop (escalate to Security as a false positive) if the product is not installed or is already at/above the minimum version to reach.
Include hostnames and what you found.
Otherwise choose update, remove, or suppress below and document it in the ticket.
Remediation (pick the most appropriate option):
A. Update (default when still needed)
- Install the updated vendor package (wizard/RMM) to the version listed under Minimum version to reach (or the latest available).
B. Not needed / not in use - uninstall or remove
- Only if the software should not exist on the host.
C. Cannot update or uninstall - escalate to Security for suppression
- You verified it exists at a vulnerable version, and install/update/uninstall is not viable after preferred methods.
- If the product is EOL: check/apply the latest available final build first; if keeping it, notify the client, then escalate to Security.
- Suppression only stops tracking. It does not patch or remove the vulnerability. Residual risk stays until a real fix.
- Client must accept or be notified. Record discussion notes to the client (who, what, hosts, and that risk remains).
Client coordination - READ BEFORE UPDATING:
If this update may interrupt a user, schedule after hours or contact the client first.
If another vendor manages this application, device, workstation, or server: that vendor or the service owner must perform the update. If they are unable or unwilling, escalate to Security for suppression.
===== TECHNICAL GUIDANCE (do this) =====
- PostgreSQL is a database engine - not a desktop app
- Confirm major version and cluster on each host
- Apply the matching minor/security update for that major in a maintenance window
- Do not use winget; coordinate before restarting the service

Vulnerability Remediation - FortiClient - Update Required
Product/System: FortiClient
Affected Systems Count: 1
Finding summary:
FortiClient is a VPN client on the listed hosts.
If the site has a FortiGate / Fortinet firewall, this VPN is expected - update it. If the site does not have that firewall, confirm with the client that they still use this VPN before updating or removing it. Use the vendor installer from support.fortinet.com. Automated / RMM updates have failed for FortiClient VPN in the past.

Additional CVEs (9 more) are listed in the Client Folder report.
Minimum version to reach:
- null (or the latest available).
Affected Systems:
- Yesi.int.shoreviewpediatrics (Tmeeks) - 172.16.16.184 [10 vulns]
Quick-check each host first.
Then stop (escalate to Security as a false positive) if the product is not installed or is already at/above the minimum version to reach.
Include hostnames and what you found.
Otherwise choose update, remove, or suppress below and document it in the ticket.
Remediation (pick the most appropriate option):
A. Matching firewall, or client confirms they use this VPN - update (default)
- If the site has a FortiGate / Fortinet firewall: download from support.fortinet.com and run the vendor installer to the version listed under Minimum version to reach (or the latest available). Do not rely on RMM for FortiClient VPN.
- Coordinate the FortiClient version with site FortiGate firmware before upgrading.
- If the site does not have a FortiGate / Fortinet firewall: confirm with the client that they still use this VPN before updating.
B. No matching firewall and client confirms they do not use this VPN - uninstall
- Confirm with the client first. Then uninstall and remove leftover VPN adapters/services.
C. Cannot update or uninstall - escalate to Security for suppression
- You confirmed it is in use (matching firewall or client confirmation) and still behind after the update path.
- Suppression only stops tracking. It does not patch or remove the vulnerability. Residual risk stays until a real fix.
- Client must accept or be notified. Record discussion notes to the client (who, what, hosts, and that risk remains).
Client coordination - READ BEFORE UPDATING:
If this update may interrupt a user, schedule after hours or contact the client first.
If another vendor manages this application, device, workstation, or server: that vendor or the service owner must perform the update. If they are unable or unwilling, escalate to Security for suppression.
===== TECHNICAL GUIDANCE (do this) =====
- FortiClient VPN: manual vendor installer recommended
This VPN is expected if the site has a FortiGate / Fortinet firewall. If it does not, confirm with the client that they still use this VPN before updating or removing it.
- Automated / RMM updates have failed for FortiClient VPN in the past - do not rely on them until a better path exists
- Do not use winget or automated patching for this product
- Download updated installer from support.fortinet.com
- Transfer via ScreenConnect file transfer
- CMD console (SYSTEM OK): FortiClientVPNSetup_x.x.x.exe /quiet /norestart

Good evening Tiffanie,
Your quarterly vulnerability scan report has been completed and is available in your client folder.
Recommended remediation priorities (Top Ten):
Complete report package:
The folder contains the following reports:
• Pending Remediation EPSS Score Report - classifies vulnerabilities by Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS), which measures the likelihood of exploitation within 30 days (scale 0-1.0, with 1.0 being most critical).
• All Vulnerabilities Report - agent-detected vulnerabilities on managed assets (applications, OS patches, and related findings), from critical to low severity.
• Executive Summary Report - a high-level overview of your security posture and network information.
• External Scan - detected vulnerabilities and services exposed to the internet.
• Suppressed Vulnerabilities Report - vulnerabilities that have been suppressed (e.g., false positives or accepted risk) and will not appear on future remediation lists.
Not all vulnerabilities may be feasible to remediate depending on business or technical constraints.
Note: Remediation tickets have been generated for items covered under your RMIT+ agreement. Third-party items not covered under the agreement will not be remediated unless we discuss them and a quote has been generated. To schedule a discussion, please use the scheduling link above.
We appreciate your commitment to security. Addressing these vulnerabilities is essential for maintaining the protection of your systems.
Sincerely,
Chris Knospe
