CVE-2024-39591Network attack vector

Authenticated privilege escalation via unchecked function module

Published Aug 13, 2024 · Updated Aug 13, 2024

Missing authorization in SAP Document Builder allows remote authenticated users to escalate privileges and read restricted application data. SAP identifies one function module as the affected locus but has not disclosed its name or the omitted authorization operation. A low-privilege account and network access are required; exploitation exposes limited confidential information without altering data or interrupting service.
