I have added the following registry keys as suggested to remediate this vulnerability but the vulnerability has not been resolved, is there any addition configurations that are required in order to clean my scan report.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Cryptography\Wintrust\Config]
"EnableCertPaddingCheck"="1"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Cryptography\Wintrust\Config]
"EnableCertPaddingCheck"="1"

Thankyou.

    The registry changes you have mentioned above is absolutely correct and same has to be applied as recommended by Microsoft. However, have you rebooted the system to work the latest register changes. Please confirm on this.
