In short

A vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver allows authenticated users to exploit XML External Entity (XXE) attacks through a specific web interface. This could let attackers read sensitive files or cause system disruption by manipulating how the application processes XML data.

Technical detail

The BC-BMT-BPM-DSK component in SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA 7.5 fails to properly validate XML input at the bpemuwlconn URI endpoint, enabling XXE injection attacks. An authenticated attacker can exploit this to access arbitrary files on the server or perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) operations.
