CVE-2024-28996

Data compromise via SWQL injection

Published Jun 4, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

SWQL injection in SolarWinds Platform 2024.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers on an adjacent network to read and alter data. SolarWinds has not disclosed the affected SWQL endpoint, input field, or query-construction operation that fails to neutralize input. Reachability requires adjacent-network access and high attack complexity, with no authentication or user interaction.
