SolarWinds Patches Four Critical Root-Level Flaws in Serv-U File Transfer Software

Summary

SolarWinds patched four critical vulnerabilities in Serv-U (CVE-2025-40538, CVE-2025-40539, CVE-2025-40540, and CVE-2025-40541) that allow high-privileged attackers to gain root access and execute arbitrary code.

Take Action:

If you are using Serv-U instances, plan a quick update to version 15.5.4. Even if the flaws are not currently exploited, all it takes is breaching someone's credentials to exploit them. And that can happen through phishing, simple credential stuffing or even reusing same credentials on other systems.
