Advisory
SAP takes the security of its vast product portfolio very seriously and thus releases security fixes for
vulnerabilities reported by external researchers and their customers every second Tuesday of the month.
SAP Note 3752864
was released on
11.08.2026 and deals with
"3752864 - [CVE-2026-58241] Missing Authorization Check in SAP NetWeaver and ABAP Platform (Change and Transport System - Customer Transport Integration Wizard)" within ABAP.
We advice you to follow the instructions, to resolve
missing authorization check
with a
medium potential for exploitation
in component BC-CTS-TMS-CTR.
According to SAP Security Advisory team a workaround exists. It is advisable to implement the correction as monthly patch process.
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 NetWeaver and ABAP Platform (Change and Transport System) allow an authenticated attacker to modify configuration tables that control access to data objects during specific operations, resulting in unauthorized modification of data and potential service disruption.
Solution
The affected functions now require the calling user to hold the relevant administrative authorization object with the appropriate special transport functions value before granting access. Alternativly, the consulting team has proposed the following: "If the Upgrade Integration Wizard is already configured or no additional configuration is required, you can deactivate the ICF service node in transaction SICF (service name SCTS_UPGINT_CHECK_CONFIG). This will effectively disable both the configuration UI and the underlying service.". The suggestion may be considered, as a workaround or compensating mitigation. We recommend installing/applying the correction wherever possible and as soon as possible. Base your decision on whether or not to apply the patch on your companies and systems risk perspective and consider the provided CVSS 4.2 score.
