Description

Symptom

The system does not enforce required authorization checks, enabling users to abuse functionalities restricted to specific user groups. This affects the ability to manage SPED reports such as ECD, ECF, EFD ICMS IPI, and EFD Contribuições, which can allow unauthorized users to read, modify, or delete SPED reports’ data.

Solution

Implementing this SAP Note will ensure that the following S/4Hana ACR Brazil Option tools perform proper authorization checks:

  • Generate Template File for SPED Registers (/TMF/SHADOW_SHEET_GENERATE)
  • Import Complementary Data to SPED Registers (/TMF/IMPEXL_GUI)
  • Delete Complementary Data from SPED Registers (/TMF/IMPDELEXL_GUI)

CVSS

Score 5.3 Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L

Affected components

  • S4CORE: Versions 103, 104
