SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP XSS (3559307)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 234227

Language:

Synopsis

The remote SAP NetWeaver ABAP server may be affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote SAP NetWeaver ABAP server may be affected by an information disclosure vulnerability. SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP does not sufficiently encode user-controlled inputs, leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This enables an attacker, without requiring any privileges, to inject malicious JavaScript into a website. When a user visits the compromised page, the injected script gets executed, potentially compromising the confidentiality and integrity within the scope of the victim’s browser. Availability is not impacted.

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.
