CVE-2022-29616Network attack vector

Service interruption via memory-management errors

Published May 11, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Memory corruption in SAP Host Agent 7.22 and SAP NetWeaver and ABAP Platform kernel releases allows remote attackers to interrupt service. Logical errors in the SAP Host Agent Kernel's memory management corrupt memory, but SAP has not disclosed the affected routine, triggering input, or incorrect operation. Network access without authentication is sufficient; published scoring limits the demonstrated consequence to loss of availability, without disclosed data exposure or modification.
