Stored JavaScript execution via unneutralized payloads

Published Oct 14, 2025 · Updated Oct 14, 2025

Stored code injection in SAP Application Server for ABAP BAPI Browser allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript. The BAPI Browser stores attacker-supplied JavaScript and later renders it without neutralization when another user opens the affected functionality. Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker and a victim to access the poisoned BAPI Browser content; resulting script execution can expose or alter browser-accessible data.
