official guidance (N-able advisory as quoted by Huntress, Nov 12, 2026)

Tip: on N-central 2026.4 HF2, confirm Legacy API is off before you put the server back online

  • IP allowlisting alone is weak here: Huntress notes the affected endpoints are the ones Agents and Probes use to check in.
  • If Legacy API was on and exposed after Nov 11, run the hunt before trusting the server.
