CVE-2024-41730

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Admin Tools) does not perform sufficient authorization checks on certain administrative functionality. An attacker authenticated as a non-administrative user could bypass this restriction to gain limited information about affected functionality.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform stores certain sensitive credentials associated with user objects using a hard-coded cryptographic key. An attacker with high privileges and local access to the server could retrieve these objects and decrypt the stored credentials. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to obtain sensitive authentication data and modify protected information, resulting in a high impact on confidentiality and integrity. There is no impact on availability.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Web Intelligence) allows a low-privileged attacker to upload a specially crafted spreadsheet file containing malicious external references. When the file is processed as a data source, the affected component resolves these references and exposes the contents of sensitive server-side files within the resulting report. This results in a high impact on confidentiality, with no impact on integrity and availability.

Due to insufficient CSRF protection in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform, an authenticated user could be tricked by an attacker into sending unintended requests to the web server. This has low impact on integrity and availability, with no impact on confidentiality.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to send crafted requests through the URL parameter that controls the login page error message. This can cause the server to fetch attacker-supplied URLs, resulting in low impact to confidentiality and integrity, and no impact to availability.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform versions 420 and 430 allow an unauthorized attacker who hijacked a user session to bypass the victim's old password via brute force due to unrestricted rate limit for password change functionality.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform versions 420 and 430 do not sufficiently validate input, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to redirect users to an untrusted site via a malicious link. Successful exploitation can let an attacker view or modify information, causing a limited impact on confidentiality and integrity.
