CVE-2021-27611

High-privilege code injection via RDDPUTJR report

Published May 11, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Code injection in SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 700, 701, 702, 730, and 731 allows local users with high privileges to execute malicious code. The RDDPUTJR program permits an authorized ABAP report to inject malicious code, but SAP has not publicly described the failed validation. Successful execution allows data access or overwrite and can interrupt service; access to the local SAP system and high privileges are required.
