SAP Security Note
High priority
SAP security note 1856296, "Missing authorization check in CA-LT-CNV", is released on 13.08.2013. Below are the symptom and SAP recommended solution.
Description
Symptom
An authenticated user can use functions of CA-LT-CNV (software component DMIS) to which access should be restricted. This may result in an escalation of privileges.
Solution
Implement the correction instruction in all affected systems (i.e., all systems that contain the software component DMIS).
Reason and prerequisites
CA-LT-CNV does not contain authorization checks for verifying an authenticated user’s permissions to access certain functions. This may lead to undesired system behavior.
CVSS
Score 4.9 Vector: AV:N/AC:M/AU:S/C:N/I:P/A:P
