Description

Symptom

Certain functions of the Schedule Manager monitor can be called even if the user who is logged on does not have the required authorization. This may result in an escalation of privileges.

Solution

Implement the program corrections described below.

Reason and prerequisites

Authorization checks are missing in the Schedule Manager monitor to regulate access to the functions. Without these checks, a user who is logged on can simply call these functions, which may result in an undesired change in the system behavior.

Affected components

  • SAP_ABA: From 46C to 730
