What is CVE-2021-28674?
CVE-2021-28674 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in n/a, published on 27 Jul 2021. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The node management page in SolarWinds Orion Platform before 2020.2.5 HF1 allows an attacker to create or delete a node (outside of the attacker's perimeter) via an account with write permissions. This occurs because node IDs are predictable (with incrementing numbers) and the access control on Services/NodeManagement.asmx/DeleteObjNow is incorrect. To exploit this, an attacker must be authenticated and must have node management rights associated with at least one valid group on the platform.
