CVE-2025-42919Network attack vector

Unauthenticated metadata disclosure via arbitrary path components

Published Nov 11, 2025 · Updated Nov 12, 2025

Path traversal in SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java ENGINEAPI and EP-BASIS 7.50 allows remote attackers to read application metadata. Request handling accepts manipulated URLs containing arbitrary path components and resolves them to internal metadata files without enforcing the intended path boundary. No authentication or user interaction is required; exploitation exposes sensitive metadata but does not alter data or interrupt the server.
