Vulnerabilities: January 2025 Highlights

[CVE-2025-0070] Improper Authentication in SAP NetWeaver ABAP Server and ABAP Platform (SAP Note 3537476)

SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP and ABAP Platform allows an authenticated attacker to obtain illegitimate access to the system by exploiting improper authentication checks, resulting in privilege escalation. On successful exploitation, this can result in potential security concerns. This results in a high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

[CVE-2025-0066] Information Disclosure vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver AS for ABAP and ABAP Platform (Internet Communication Framework) (SAP Note 3550708)

Under certain conditions, SAP NetWeaver AS for ABAP and ABAP Platform (Internet Communication Framework) allows attackers to access restricted information due to weak access controls. This can have a significant impact on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an application.

[CVE-2025-0063] SQL Injection vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver AS for ABAP and ABAP Platform (SAP Note 3550816)

SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP and ABAP Platform does not check for authorisation when a user executes some RFC function modules. This could lead to an attacker with basic user privileges to gain control over the data in Informix database, leading to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
