- - -- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of SAP Netweaver ABAP. Authentication is not
required to exploit this vulnerability.=20
The specific flaw exists within the msg_server.exe listening on 3900 by
default. When the msg_server parses a message with opcode 0x43 and
sub-opcode 0x04 it uses a user suplied size field to copy a string into a
static sized stack buffer. The resulting buffer overflow can lead to remote
code execution under the context of the process.
- - -- Vendor Response:
SAP has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details can be
