vulnerabilities' list)


The vulnerabilities' list is accessible even by unprivileged 
user account.

  Just as a side note, but it shows that it's not only the MBSA that 
exposes this sort of damaging information, the vulns list can also be
remotely inferred if SNMP is enabled, since it is possible to enumerate 
the list of installed service packs / hot fixes and thereby deduce any
omissions:  example from "snmputil walk <ip.addr> public .1.3.6.1.2.1."
