SolarWinds Serv-U was found to be susceptible to a Directory Traversal Remote Code Vulnerability. This vulnerability requires a highly privileged account to be exploited.
SolarWinds Serv-U is submitting an HTTP request when changing or updating the attributes for File Share or File request. Part of the URL of the request discloses sensitive data.
Common encryption key appears to be used across all deployed instances of Serv-U FTP Server. Because of this an encrypted value that is exposed to an attacker can be simply recovered to plaintext.
