thanks again for your reply. The plugin was updated to report the
version of the file where the detection happened and the vulnerable
range. This update arrived the feed once the plugin has reached revision
6938.

But i'm still wondering about the Fontsub.dll version. According to your
posted link:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2847311/ms13-081-description-of-the-security-update-for-kernel-mode-drivers-oc

the Fontsub.dll is listed twice:

Fontsub.dll     6.2.9200.16453  96,256  08-Nov-2012     04:20   x64

Fontsub.dll     6.2.9200.16384  96,256  26-Jul-2012     03:05   x64

The plugin is checking for a version < 6.2.9200.16453 against Windows
Server 2012 but you have installed 6.2.9200.16384.

Not quite sure if this is an issue in the advisory or at the target
system where the second update in Nov 2012 was missed.
