Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated session with at least low-privilege access to the SAP Gateway (CVSS PR:L confirmed). The attacker must be able to send HTTP requests over the network to the Gateway endpoint (AV:N, AC:L). No user interaction is required (UI:N). The vulnerability manifests when the Gateway processes input that triggers an error condition, causing internal artifacts to surface in the response. Exploitation is limited by the authentication requirement - unauthenticated external attackers cannot exploit this directly. Additionally, SSVC rates this as 'automatable: no', meaning scripted mass exploitation across internet-facing instances is not considered feasible. The vulnerability does not affect systems where SAP Gateway endpoints are fully restricted to backend-only access with no external or low-privilege user-facing exposure.

Impact

Real-world risk is low-to-moderate despite a network attack vector. The CVSS 4.3 score reflects the constrained impact - confidentiality only, low severity, no privilege escalation or availability impact. The PR:L requirement (authenticated, low-privilege) meaningfully narrows the attack surface: an attacker must already hold valid SAP Gateway credentials, which is a non-trivial prerequisite in enterprise environments. EPSS at 0.01% (1st percentile) and SSVC 'exploitation: none / automatable: no / technical impact: partial' all converge to indicate this is not a target of opportunistic or automated attack campaigns. The SSVC 'automatable: no' finding further reduces mass-exploitation risk. The primary real-world concern is reconnaissance value: information leaked (regex patterns, URI parsing internals) could assist a sophisticated attacker already inside the network in constructing more targeted follow-on attacks. This is not a standalone critical issue but represents an information-disclosure risk that widens an attacker's knowledge of the attack surface in a broader campaign.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated attacker with low-privilege access to the SAP Gateway OData or RFC endpoint crafts a malformed HTTP request designed to trigger an error response from the Gateway. The injected content causes the error message to reflect internal regex patterns or URI parsing logic back to the attacker, revealing implementation details about the Gateway's input processing pipeline. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, but the information gained could be used to refine subsequent attack attempts against input validation or access control mechanisms in the same or connected SAP systems.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 08, 2026

Content injection into SAP Gateway error messages exposes internal implementation details - specifically regex patterns and URI parsing logic - to authenticated remote attackers. Affecting SAP Gateway versions 750 through 758 and SAP_BASIS 795, the flaw allows an attacker with low-level network credentials to craft inputs that surface sensitive system internals via error responses. Confidentiality impact is rated low; integrity and availability are unaffected. No active exploitation is confirmed (CISA KEV absent), and EPSS sits at 0.01%, consistent with SSVC's 'exploitation: none' assessment.

RemediationAI

The primary remediation is to apply the patch published by SAP via Security Note 3433366 (https://me.sap.com/notes/3433366), released as part of SAP Security Patch Day. The exact patched version number is not independently confirmed from the available data - organizations must consult the SAP Note directly via SAP Support Portal to identify the specific support package or kernel patch level required for their basis version. As a compensating control pending patching, restrict network access to SAP Gateway endpoints to trusted internal IP ranges or authenticated VPN users only, reducing the pool of potential PR:L authenticated users who could trigger the injection. Additionally, review and tighten SAP Gateway authorization objects (e.g., /IWFND/* and /IWBEP/* auth objects) to enforce least-privilege access, limiting who can send requests to error-triggering endpoints. Note that these controls reduce exposure but do not eliminate the vulnerability - patching remains the definitive fix.

Technical ContextAI · show details

SAP Gateway is the OData and RFC-based integration layer within SAP's NetWeaver stack, responsible for routing and processing API requests between SAP backends and external consumers. The root cause is CWE-497 (Exposure of Sensitive System Information to an Unauthorized Control Sphere): the Gateway does not sanitize or neutralize attacker-controlled input before embedding it in error message output. This allows injected content to interact with or surface the internal URI parsing logic and regex patterns used by the Gateway's request processing pipeline. CPE data confirms affected components as cpe:2.3:a:sap_se:sap_gateway:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, spanning both the GWFND 750 basis foundation layer and the higher SAP_BASIS 795 stack. Leaking regex and routing patterns is meaningful in SAP environments because it can inform bypass attempts against input validation or access control logic in subsequent exploitation steps.

DescriptionCVE.org

The SAP Gateway allows attackers to inject content into error messages, potentially leading to disclosure of request artefacts (e.g., regex patterns) and revealing underlying URI parsing logic. Leading to low impact on confidentiality. Integrity and availability are unaffected.
