Missing authorization check in FI-LA, SAP security note 2028525

SAP Note 2028525

SAP security note 2028525, “Missing Authorization Check in FI-LA”, is a note. Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution and the affected software components.

Description

Symptom

The function module FILA_PRODUCT_READ does not perform the necessary authorization checks, which may allow users to execute operations without the required permissions.

Solution

To mitigate this vulnerability, apply the correction instructions provided in the security note.

Reason and prerequisites

Remote calls to RFC function modules are typically protected by the authorization object S_RFC. However, in this case, FILA_PRODUCT_READ might not sufficiently enforce authorization checks, leading to potential security breaches. It’s essential to ensure that authorizations for S_RFC are tightly controlled and that additional functional authorization checks are implemented where necessary.

Affected components

  • EA-APPL: 600, 602, 603, 604, 605, 606, 616, 617
