SAP Note 1479762

SAP security note 1479762, "Missing authority check in SAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN". Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution and the affected software components.

Description

Symptom

An authenticated user can use functionality of SAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN to which access should be restricted. This can potentially result in an escalation of privileges.

Solution

An authority check 'S_TABU_DIS' for the table RSADMIN has been added accordingly to the authority checks for customizing transactions. Apply the corresponding note or Support Package.

Reason and prerequisites

SAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN lacks permission checks for an authenticated user’s authorization to access some of its functionality. This may result in undesired system behavior.
