Session compromise via stored workspace scripts
Published Sep 14, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Stored cross-site scripting in SAP BusinessObjects BI Workspace before 420 allows remote authenticated users to compromise another user's session. The module document, file, and folder creation paths store attacker-supplied script content and render it when another user visits the page. Basic application access is required to plant the payload, and a second user must visit the affected page, where the script executes in that user's security context.
