Unauthorized modification of displayed content in BW-BEX, SAP security note 1802724

Description

This security note replaces security note 1800926

BW-BEX-ET-WJR-RT 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.
The issue is not occuring in releases >= 7.3x. In those releases the requests are blocked by NetWeaver portal infrastructure. Nevertheless, the correction in BI Java was introduced also in those releases to assure highest security.
