Description
Symptom
An authenticated user can use functionality of the BOR object REPORT to which access should be restricted. This can potentially result in an escalation of privileges.
Solution
Import the appropriate Support Package or implement the correction instructions. After applying the fix, the authorization object S_DEVELOP will be checked in the BOR object REPORT.
Reason and prerequisites
The BOR object REPORT lacks permission checks for an authenticated user’s authorization to access some of its functionality. This may result in undesired system behavior.
