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)
- .NET 9 (non-LTS): update 9.x runtime via WU/vendor installer, or uninstall if unused
- .NET 10 (LTS): update runtime to the reported target within the 10.x line

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.

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)
- Update the app to the version listed under Minimum version to reach (or the latest available) via vendor updater, RMM, or Backstage CMD/PS.
- Relaunch the app if an update downloaded but did not apply.
B. Not needed / not in use - uninstall or remove
- Only if the app is not required on that host (confirm site standard / client).
C. Cannot reach a secure release - escalate to Security for suppression
- Typical case: OS cannot support the secure release, or update is blocked after RMM/Backstage CMD/PS/live-session attempts.
- If the product is EOL: check/apply the latest available final build first; if keeping it, notify the client, then escalate to Security.
- You verified the app is present at a vulnerable version.
- Do not use suppress for ordinary update failures - finish preferred methods or escalate troubleshooting first.
- 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) =====
- Try updates in this order:
1) RMM automated patching or software deployment (preferred)
2) ScreenConnect Backstage CMD/PS or command/script (silent installer)
3) Only if 1 and 2 fail: live remote session with the end user for in-app UI updates
- If this host is a VM, take a pre-update snapshot so you can revert if there are issues.
- Chrome updates via Google Update (background); relaunch may be needed to apply a downloaded update
- If still behind: check Chrome update policy / Google Update scheduled tasks
- Verify the update was successful

Affected Systems:
- ARCHDC01 - 192.168.168.179 [7 vulns]
- TABLET-CODYV (CodyVanGinkel) - 192.168.147.62 [7 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) =====
- Confirm flagged Teams version - Classic is not always the source
- Classic Teams is sometimes a per-user install
- A user who has not logged into this workstation in a while, or is not the primary user, can still have Classic leftover
- Run the RMM Teams Classic cleanup script for those leftover per-user installs
- Classic/duplicate suspected: R-Security - Teams Classic Cleanup Remediation (Scripts > RR Custom > RR Custom - R-Security Remediation > R-Security - Teams Classic Cleanup Remediation)
- Current Teams behind: automated patching/RMM first
- Live user session only if needed: three-dot menu > Settings > About Teams
- Backstage (CMD/PS): RMM script / installer only - not the Teams UI

Good evening Emily,
Your quarterly vulnerability scan report has been completed and is available in your client folder.
Recommended remediation priorities (Top 12):
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
