What is CVE-2020-15910?
The vulnerability in SolarWinds N-Central versions 12.3 GA and lower stems from the JSESSIONID attribute not being set to HTTPOnly. This oversight allows attackers to manipulate the cookie using JavaScript, potentially leading to session hijacking.

Organizations using affected versions of N-Central should take immediate action to protect their systems.
