Ahh, I see where the confusion is. They actually have authority to issue legally binding orders.

"To help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and help our country cope during the pandemic, CDC has occasionally issued legally binding orders and regulations."

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cdcresponse/laws-r...

Not all such orders are listed on that page. For example, "CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky today signed an order determining the evictions of tenants for failure to make rent or housing payments could be detrimental to public health control measures".
