CVE-2026-28312 is a critical privilege escalation vulnerability in SolarWinds Serv-U affecting versions 15.5.4 HF1 and earlier on Windows and Linux. The flaw allows an attacker with existing high privileges in Serv-U, such as group-level administrative access, to elevate a group's permissions to system administrator. On Linux deployments, successful exploitation can further enable execution with root privileges. Available reporting associates the issue with improper authorization and broken access control conditions.
