The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 13.0.782.218 and is potentially affected by an out of date certificate authority list. Due to the issuance of several fraudulent SSL certificates, the certificate authority DigiNotar has been disabled in Google Chrome.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of this condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
