SAP security note 1484918, “Potential modification of data in IPC Database Interface.” Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution and the affected software components.
Description
Symptom
A malicious user can exploit the database interface for the IPC and use specially crafted inputs to execute arbitrary database commands to retrieve, modify, or remove data persisted by the system.
Solution
The affected function modules are obsolete. The erroneous code has been removed and an assert statement is triggered if the function modules are executed. Please implement the correction.
Reason and prerequisites
The problem is caused by an SQL injection vulnerability. The code composes an SQL statement including strings that can be altered by a malicious user. The manipulated SQL statement can then be used to retrieve additional information from the database or to potentially modify it.
