We’re excited to announce a release candidate (RC) for version 2024.4 of the SolarWinds® Platform, SolarWinds® Hybrid Cloud Observability, and the Network and Systems modules. Version 2024.4 RC is now available for all customers under maintenance, so log in to your customer portal to download it. Want to see everything new? Check out the Release Notes.
This post focuses on new capabilities on the Vulnerability and Risk Dashboard. To see the list of all the features in 2024.4, see the complete announcement post.
Vulnerability and Risk Dashboard Improvements
We are excited to improve the vulnerability and risk dashboard by enabling users to change the state of a CVE and its applicability. This feature is available for Hybrid Cloud Observability Advanced customers.


This will help them reduce the noise from the actual vulnerabilities that are of interest. As part of it, we also worked on converging the settings for sourcing and mapping the vulnerability database with the feature in NCM so that customers do not have to do it twice. The state change can also be used as a filter to view the vulnerability details.
