Descriptions

SolarWinds Platform was susceptible to Improper Input Validation. This vulnerability allows a remote adversary with valid access to SolarWinds Web Console to escalate user privileges.

La plataforma SolarWinds fue susceptible a una validación de entrada incorrecta. Esta vulnerabilidad permite que un adversario remoto con acceso válido a SolarWinds Web Console escale los privilegios del usuario.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the CheckWhetherNonAdminAttemptsToModifyBlacklistedRecords function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the user-supplied SettingName parameter. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges to resources normally protected from the user.

*Credits: SolarWinds would like to thank Piotr Bazydlo (@chudypb) of Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative for reporting on the issue in a responsible manner.
