Denial of service (DOS) in SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform

SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform allows an unauthenticated attacker to craft a specific network request to the trusted endpoint that breaks the authentication, which prevents the legitimate users from accessing the platform. As a result, it has a high impact on the availability but no impact on the confidentiality and integrity.

Denial of service (DOS) vulnerability in SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform

SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform allows an unauthenticated attacker to send specially crafted requests that could cause the Content Management Server (CMS) to crash and automatically restart. By repeatedly submitting these requests, the attacker could induce a persistent service disruption, rendering the CMS completely unavailable. Successful exploitation results in a high impact on availability, while confidentiality and integrity remain unaffected.

Server-Side Request Forgery in SAP BI Platform

SAP BI Platform allows an attacker to modify the IP address of the LogonToken for the OpenDoc. On accessing the modified link in the browser a different server could get the ping request. This has low impact on integrity with no impact on confidentiality and availability of the system.
