A workaround exists, according to SAP Security Advisory team. It is advisable to implement the correction as monthly patch process.
The vulnerability addressed is code injection within ABAP.
Missing authority checks are still the most common security defect related to authorizations in custom code. Since SAP uses an explicit authorization model, an authority checks must be coded in order to be executed. If an explicit check is not coded, all users have access. This type of vulnerability not only exists in SAP standard it also exists in customer coding. Check your custom developments for vulnerabilities that pose a risk to your systems. SecurityBridge helps detect code vulnerabilities before they are implemented in production.
Risk specification
SAP CRM and SAP S/4HANA Scripting Editor allows an authenticated attacker to perform unauthorized operations, including the execution of arbitrary SQL statements, potentially leading to a complete compromise of system data and functionality.
Solution
The application now enforces strict allowlist validation for function module calls, ensuring that only approved operations are executed and effectively blocking malicious code execution attempts. Although an alternative solution exists, it is advisable to apply the correction! This is the workaround, which was suggested by the SAP security experts: "As a workaround, deactivate SICF entry for CRM_IC_ISE by following the steps mentioned in the note. Afterwards the old Scripting Editor cannot be used anymore.".
