Due to insecure file permissions in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform, an attacker who has local access to the system could modify files potentially disrupting operations or cause service downtime hence leading to a high impact on integrity and availability. However, this vulnerability does not disclose any sensitive data.
Under specific conditions, the Central Management Console of the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform allows an attacker with admin rights to generate or retrieve a secret passphrase, enabling them to impersonate any user in the system. This results in a high impact on confidentiality and integrity, with no impact on availability.
SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform - versions 420, 430, allows an authenticated attacker to access sensitive information which is otherwise restricted. On successful exploitation, there could be a high impact on confidentiality and limited impact on integrity of the application.
In SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Web Services) - versions 420, 430, an attacker can control a malicious BOE server, forcing the application server to connect to its own admintools, leading to a high impact on availability.
Due to insufficient file type validation, SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Web Intelligence HTML interface) - version 420, allows a report creator to upload files from local system into the report over the network. When uploading the image file, an authenticated attacker could intercept the request, modify the content type and the extension to read and modify sensitive data causing a high impact on confidentiality and integrity of the application.
The File Repository Server (FRS) CORBA listener in SAP BussinessObjects Edge 4.0 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a full pathname, aka SAP Note 2018681.
The File RepositoRy Server (FRS) CORBA listener in SAP BussinessObjects Edge 4.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a full pathname, aka SAP Note 2018682.
Under certain conditions SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform 4.10 and 4.20 allows an attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted.
Due to insufficient CSRF protection, SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Monitoring Application), before versions 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, may lead to an authenticated user to send unintended request to the web server, leading to Cross Site Request Forgery.
SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Web Intelligence HTML interface), corrected in versions 4.1 and 4.2, does not sufficiently validate an XML document accepted from an untrusted source. An attacker can craft a message that contains malicious elements that will not be correctly filtered by Web Intelligence HTML interface in some specific workflows.
In SAP Business Objects Business Intelligence Platform, before versions 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, some dynamic pages (like jsp) are cached, which leads to an attacker can see the sensitive information via cache and can open the dynamic pages even after logout.
SAP Business Objects Business Intelligence Platform, version 4.2, allows an unauthenticated attacker to prevent legitimate users from accessing a service. Using a specially crafted request, the attacker can crash or flood the Central Management Server, thereby impacting system availability.
Under certain conditions, SAP Business Objects Business Intelligence Platform, version 4.1, 4.2, dswsbobje web application allows an attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted, leading to Information Disclosure.
SAP BusinessObjects CMC allows an unauthenticated attacker to retrieve token information over the network which would otherwise be restricted. This can be achieved only when a legitimate user accesses the application and a local compromise occurs, like sniffing or social engineering. On successful exploitation, the attacker can completely compromise the application.
When a user access SOAP Web services in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform - version 420, 430, it does not sufficiently validate the XML document accepted from an untrusted source, which might result in arbitrary files retrieval from the server and in successful exploits of DoS.
Under certain conditions, SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform, Client Management Console (CMC) - version 430, allows an attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted, leading to Information Disclosure.
