8.8 HIGH

Aligned to the vendor AV:A (adjacent) with PR:N/UI:N for unauthenticated hardcoded-key RCE and full C/I/A; description says 'remote' so AV:N (→9.8) is plausible if the service is routable.

DescriptionCVE.org

SolarWinds Access Rights Manager was reported to be affected by an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability. The issue stems from a hardcoded static key.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated remote code execution affects SolarWinds Access Rights Manager 2026.2 and all earlier versions, where a hardcoded static cryptographic key (CWE-321) shipped in default installations allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. Per the vendor CVSS vector (AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), no credentials and no user interaction are required, but the attacker must be positioned on an adjacent or same-segment network rather than reaching the service across arbitrary internet paths - a point that conflicts with the advisory's 'remote' wording and should be confirmed with SolarWinds. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires network reach to a SolarWinds Access Rights Manager instance running version 2026.2 or earlier; per the vendor CVSS vector (AV:A) the attacker must be on an adjacent/same-segment network rather than arbitrarily remote, so network segmentation and isolating the ARM management host meaningfully limit exposure. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuinely high-priority vulnerability: an unauthenticated RCE (PR:N) with full CIA impact (C:H/I:H/A:H) and low attack complexity (AC:L) in an enterprise access-governance product. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation The primary fix is a vendor-released patch: upgrade SolarWinds Access Rights Manager to 2026.2.1 or later, per the release notes at https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/whd/content/release_notes/arm_2026-2-1_release_notes.htm, and confirm the update against the vendor advisory at https://www.solarwinds.com/trust-center/security-advisories/CVE-2026-28326. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, confirm every SolarWinds Access Rights Manager instance in the environment, verify the exact version against 2026.2 and earlier, and treat all unpatched deployments as exposed; immediately isolate affected hosts by restricting them to a dedicated management VLAN, removing any internet or cross-segment reachability to the ARM service, and enforcing least-privilege firewall rules between ARM and other systems per vendor guidance. …
