Description:
This script checks for the presence of vulnerable configurations related to the CVE-2023-4762 Type Confusion Vulnerability in Google Chromium V8.
It does this by comparing the installed version of Google Chrome with the affected software configurations using WMI.
If the installed version is found to be vulnerable, it displays a warning message. Otherwise, it indicates that the system is not vulnerable.

Requirements:

- WMI module (install using `pip install wmi`)

Usage:
Run the script using the command `python cve_2023_4762_google_chrome_v8.py`.

Functions:
- get_installed_software(): Retrieves a list of installed software on the user's machine using the WMI module.

Important Notes:
- The predefined list of affected software configurations corresponds to the CVE-2023-4762 Type Confusion Vulnerability in Google Chromium V8.
