CVE-2020-6214Network attack vector

Data access and manipulation via incorrect authorization object

Published Apr 14, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Incorrect authorization in SAP S/4HANA for Financial Products Subledger before 100 allows remote authenticated users to access or alter report data. Unspecified reports check the wrong authorization object, so their intended segregation-of-duties control does not govern access. Other authorization checks and high-privilege authenticated access are still required; successful use permits viewing, changing, or deleting data.
