High priority
SAP security note 1652707, "Unauthorized modification of content in order print preview", is a program error note released on 08.05.2012. Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution and the affected software components.
Description
Symptom
The print preview of CRM order documents in the CRM WebClient UI can be abused by an attacker, allowing them to modify displayed application content without authorization, and to potentially obtain authentication information from other legitimate users.
Solution
Implement the source code corrections for your release. If the print preview is not used in your business scenario, you might want to deactivate the SICF service /default_host/sap/crm/crm_pdf_print as an alternative.
Reason and prerequisites
The SICF handler for print preview of one order documents (e.g., sales orders, quotations) within the CRM WebClient UI does not sufficiently encode the PDF output string, resulting in a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) issue. A reflected XSS attack can be used to non-permanently deface or modify displayed content from a website. It can also be used to steal another user’s authentication information, such as data related to their current session. An attacker who gains access to this data may impersonate the user and access all information with the same rights as the target user. If an administrator is impersonated, the security of the application may be fully compromised.
Affected components
- BBPCRM 600, 700, 701, 702, 712
