Information disclosure via session IDs in URLs

Published Mar 10, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Information disclosure in SAP Enable Now before 1911 allows remote authenticated users to expose session identifiers through application URLs. The Manager places the Session ID cookie value in a URL, causing browsers and intermediary or server logs to retain the authentication token. A valid session is required, and access to browser history or log files can disclose the token for session impersonation and associated data access.
