SolarWinds has fixed more than a dozen bugs affecting its Access Rights Manager (ARM) software.
Some vulnerabilities are classified as critical and can be exploited to steal sensitive information or execute malicious code on vulnerable endpoints.
Users are therefore advised to implement the solutions as soon as possible and secure their devices.
