@OLLI_S I did not see anything official about Uplay being EoL, though I can see many that assume this, do you have a link to a blog post or something else that I missed?

I found this:
https://support.ubisoft.com/en-US/faqs/58911

This, in my opinion, indicates that not all games are moved to Ubisoft Connect, thus it indicates that Uplay is still maintained - but I may be wrong.

Ubisoft Connect is now added.

Indeed, and it is Insecure.

But the update is not yet available. Windows is vulnerable to CVE-2020-17087.

This is a privilege escalation vulnerability which was exploited together with the recent 0-day in Google Chrome:
https://www.theregister.com/2020/10/30/windows_kernel_zeroday/

Right now it is even more important to keep all other software up-to-date, since this vulnerability can (and was) used to break out of the sandbox protection, which is used by some applications (including Chrome) to make it harder to fully compromise a system via a remote exploit.

We will soon review the title of Windows 10, it does appears that Microsoft has changed the naming / versioning of the semi-annual releases.

Try to expand the Windows 10 entry, there should be a list of one or more KBs that are missing and which are security related.

As far as I can tell, then the official "name" will be 2009, rather than 20H2.
However, they didn't update the official pages with either name, yet.
For now we will stick with the name in the ReleaseId, as that seems to be the official one.

Thank you for reporting this, this should be fixed upon next inspection.

Just as I wrote to your other post that they started updated both the strings and the numbers, it appears that they made a release which updated neither.

We have added an extra check, however, if they keep doing this, then we need to you or other users to report every time they "forget" to update it.

Please let me know if it is detected correctly now.

I think it was due to the fileVersionNumber not being updated, only the version strings were updated. The vendor has started updating the numbers as well, now, and we have added extra conditions to handle both scenarios.

I can see that the current implementation isn't good enough.

The download icon indicates that an update is available, but only for Apps where we provide a download link.

So we need to find a better way to indicate this.

@GregAlexandre Looking at this, it doesn't seem to be a standalone app, but rather one that is included in the Nero Suite, or bundled with other apps, is that correct?

@GregAlexandre On the website I see this:

From Nero 2019, all Nero Suite and standalone products will include ‘Nero KnowHow PLUS’ as a regular PC application . It will be delivered together with the Nero installer and will be available after installation of a Nero 2019 (and later) product. An Internet connection is mandatory for using ‘Nero KnowHow PLUS’.

Based on this we don't consider this a standalone application.

Unless we change our policy, then we won't add detection for this.
