Hoping someone cleverer than me can help here. Noticed we have CVE-2024-38163 which relates to WinRE. Now this should have been automatically remediated with an older patch going back 2 years but for some reason our WinRE is still on the older version.

I had a quick look and not really found much that would assist on remediating this. The KB in question doesn't seem to be readily available for download, instead only being available via Windows Update and we don't get the option for it.

Any ideas? Worried this is going to involve some open heart surgery!
