Description

Symptom

This SAP Note describes a new authorization checks for an RFC function module in Treasury and Risk management.

Solution

New authorization checks have been implemented.

Reason and prerequisites

Remote calls to RFC function modules are protected by checks on the authorization object S_RFC. Authorizations for S_RFC must be limited to the required minimum authorizations for all users to ensure system security. Many RFC function modules can be sufficiently protected using S_RFC authorization checks. These RFC function modules often do not perform additional functional authorization checks.

It was identified that S_RFC authorization checks might not be sufficient to ensure secure execution for RFC function modules covered by this SAP Note.
