SAP Note 1865109

SAP security note 1865109, “Potential information disclosure in Diagnostics Agents”. Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution and the affected software components.

ComponentSV-SMG-DIA (Service > SAP Solution Manager > Diagnostics)

Description

Symptom

An attacker can discover information related to credentials used for connecting to Solution Manager. This information could be leveraged to specialize attacks against Solution Manager, potentially leading to unauthorized access or privilege escalation.

Solution

The implementation introduced in this security note allows the use of a non-elevated role for Diagnostics Agent connections. This new role has no privileges, ensuring that an attacker cannot use it to perform critical actions on the Solution Manager system.

Reason and prerequisites

Connections of Diagnostics Agents to Solution Manager require an elevated role to be established in a trusted manner. If compromised, this role could be exploited to target Solution Manager and obtain unexpected privileges.
