The version of SolarWinds Serv-U installed on the remote host is 15.4, prior to 15.4.0 hotfix 1. It is, therefore, potentially affected by an access control vulnerability as referenced in the vendor advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
