SAP NetWeaver AS Java XSS (3262544)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 169455

Language:

Synopsis

The remote SAP NetWeaver AS Java server may be affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

Description

Due to insufficient input validation, SAP NetWeaver AS Java (HTTP Provider Service) - version 7.50, allows an unauthenticated attacker to inject a script into a web request header. On successful exploitation, an attacker can view or modify information causing a limited impact on the confidentiality and integrity of the application.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Apply the appropriate patch according to the vendor advisory.
