CVE-2021-27616

Information disclosure via insecure temporary backup path

Published May 11, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Information disclosure in SAP Business One for SAP HANA versions before 10.0 allows local users to access restricted information via a temporary backup path. The Chef cookbook creates or uses an insecure temporary backup location whose permissions permit access to data that should remain restricted. Local access to the installation environment is required, and the documented consequence is disclosure of protected application information with no separately established remote attack path.
