Description
SAP Approuter does not correctly validate client certificates in certain callback flows. An attacker with low privileges, holding a certificate from the same trusted authority with matching subject values, could bypass the identity check. This complexity makes the attack difficult to execute. Successful exploitation could allow impersonation of a trusted internal component, resulting in a high impact on integrity and a low impact on confidentiality and availability.

Impact

SAP Approuter incorrectly verifies client certificates in certain callback flows, allowing an attacker with low privileges who holds a certificate from the same trusted authority and matching subject values to circumvent the identity check. This flaw, identified as CWE-295, can lead to the attacker impersonating a trusted internal component. The exploitation primarily threatens the integrity of the environment, while the impact on confidentiality and availability remains low.

Affected Systems

SAP Business AI Platform (Approuter) from SAP. No specific affected version information is provided; any installation that uses the vulnerable callback flow logic is potentially impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.4 indicates moderate severity, and the EPSS score is not available, suggesting limited publicly known exploitation data. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Attackers would need to craft a callback using a valid certificate with matching subject values from the same certificate authority. Though the attack requires moderate complexity and specific conditions, successful exploitation allows an attacker to impersonate trusted components, posing a significant integrity risk.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the SAP security patch referenced in note 3786038 to correct certificate validation logic in SAP Approuter.
  • Reconfigure the Approuter to enforce strict client certificate validation, ensuring subject values are cross‑checked and certificates are only accepted from trusted authorities.
  • Conduct an audit of certificate stores and revoke any certificates that could match the subject values of trusted internal components, then monitor Approuter logs for anomalous authentication attempts.
