Description

Symptom

CRM-ANA-BOJ-UI can be exploited by a malicious user to modify displayed application content without authorization. This vulnerability can potentially allow the attacker to obtain authentication information from other legitimate users.

Solution

Apply this security note directly or import the necessary changes via the relevant support package.

Reason and prerequisites

The BSP page GS_ANA_FAV_REP within CRM-ANA-BOJ-UI does not adequately encode OUTPUT parameters. This oversight results in a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability, enabling attackers to steal users’ authentication data. If an administrator’s account is compromised, it could lead to a complete security breach of the application.
