SAP Note 3726962 addresses "3726962 - [CVE-2026-40131] SQL Injection vulnerability in SAP HANA Deployment Infrastructure (HDI) deploy library" to prevent sql injection (read) with a low risk for exploitation.

Risk specification

SAP HANA Deployment Infrastructure (HDI Deploy) allows an authenticated high-privileged attacker to inject SQL through dynamically constructed queries, resulting in unauthorized read access to data and reduced availability of the application.

Solution

Input passed to the affected parameter is now sanitized to prevent altered SQL statements from being passed to the database.

Affected System

SAP HANA is a high-performance in-memory database and the basis for a so called "Real-Time Data Platform".
