SAP NetWeaver AS Java Missing Authorization (3438085)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 205612

Synopsis

The remote SAP NetWeaver application server is affected by a missing authorization vulnerability.

Description

Due to the missing authorization checks in the local systems, the admin users of SAP Web Dispatcher, SAP NetWeaver Application Server (ABAP and Java), and SAP Content Server can impersonate other users and may perform some unintended actions. This could lead to a low impact on confidentiality and a high impact on the integrity and availability of the applications.

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.
