What it is

SAP Web Dispatcher and SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP (Internet Communication Manager) do not perform sufficient request validation in certain administrative functionality. In the context of Application Server ABAP and SAP Web Dispatcher, an unauthenticated attacker could trick a logged-on administrator into visiting a malicious link. Visiting the link could cause unintended actions in the administrator's session. Successful exploitation could lead to a full compromise of the underlying operating system, resulting in a high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

MITRE ATT&CK mitigations for this chain

  • M1031 Network Intrusion Prevention (for T1204.001) : If a link is being visited by a user, network intrusion prevention systems and systems designed to scan and remove malicious downloads can be used to block activity.
  • M1017 User Training (for T1204.001) : Use user training as a way to bring awareness to common phishing and spearphishing techniques and how to raise suspicion for potentially malicious events.
  • M1021 Restrict Web-Based Content (for T1204.001) : If a link is being visited by a user, block unknown or unused files in transit by default that should not be downloaded or by policy from suspicious sites as a best practice to prevent some vectors, such as .scr, .exe, .pif, .cpl, etc. Some download scanning devices can open and analyze compressed and encrypted formats

Detection Generic guidance

  • Execution: Watch for the service process spawning shells or script interpreters (cmd.exe, powershell, sh, bash, python) via EDR process-tree rules.

Response checklist Generic guidance

  1. Inventory: find every instance of the affected product and version (include internet-facing and forgotten ones).
  2. Patch or mitigate per the vendor advisory; if you cannot patch, remove internet exposure or apply the vendor workaround.
  3. Assume compromise if the system was exposed before patching: hunt for the indicators in the advisory and review logs back to the disclosure date.
  4. Rotate credentials and secrets stored on or used by the affected system if compromise cannot be ruled out.
