I wanted to point out this vulnerability and find out if SolarWinds has addressed it yet?

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are currently aware of the vulnerability and are working to address this issue in future releases.
Thanks Jeremy! Can you tell me if that also existed in previous versions, specifically 5.5?
I ask because I am curious if I should hold back on upgrading based on this. If it exists in my current version as well the I am not loosing anything if I upgrade.
Yes, this vulnerability is based on a very old library used for pie charts in the old System Manager. It effects all current, and previous releases of Orion. This library is no longer used by Orion anymore, and will be removed entirely in a future release.
Awesome, thanks for this additional information. At least I don't need to let this keep me from upgrading.
