The usd HeroLab's pentest professionals examined applications from the software manufacturer SAP while conducting their pentests.
During the assessment of the SAP Partner Portal, the redirection to an error page was found to be vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This enables attackers to remotely execute HTML tags and malicious JavaScript code in the user's browser.
In addition, the SAP HTTP Content Server was found to not neutralize or incorrectly neutralize scripting syntax in HTTP headers. This allows an attacker to perform cross-site scripting attacks or other malicious actions in the user's context.
The vulnerabilities were reported to the vendor under the Responsible Disclosure Policy and subsequently fixed. Detailed information about the advisories can be found here.
