CVE-2022-39802Network attack vector

Unauthenticated file disclosure via request path traversal

Published Oct 11, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Path traversal in SAP Manufacturing Execution 15.1 through 15.3 allows remote attackers to read server files via a crafted path request parameter. The WI500 and MODEL_VIEWER plugins pass a request-supplied file path to server-side file access without confining it to the intended directory. No authentication or user interaction is required, and readable content is limited by the NetWeaver process account's file permissions.
