Description

Symptom

An attacker can cause a stored cross-site scripting problem by manipulating BC-BMT-WFM.

Reason and prerequisites

Stored cross-site scripting can be used to permanently modify the displayed content of a Web site, allowing the attacker to embed content that is then generated and displayed automatically, without having to target victims individually.

Solution

Following the implementation of the attached corrections or the import of the corresponding Support Packages, BC-BMT-WFM uses the virus scan profile that is active for the SAPoffice environment. With regard to this, see the profile set in the parameter SO_VSI_PROFILE in the table SXPARAMS.
