SAP security note 1510149, “Unauthorized modification of displayed content in XMII”, is a note. Below is the security information published by SAP for this note.
Description
Symptom
The XMII can be abused by a malicious user allowing them to modify displayed application content without authorization and to potentially obtain authentication information from other legitimate users.
Reason and prerequisites
Pages within the XMII do not sufficiently encode INPUT parameters, resulting in a reflected cross site scripting issue. A reflected cross site scripting attack can be used to non-permanently deface or modify displayed content from a web site.
Reflected cross site scripting can be used to steal another user's authentication information such as data relating to their current session. An attacker who gains access to this data may use this to impersonate the user and access all information with the same rights as the target user. In case of an administrator being impersonated, a full compromise of the application's security can occur.
Solution
The solution is implemented in XMII 12.1 SP8. Please upgrade to XMII 12.1 SP08 for the fix.
