CVE-2023-27893 — Sap Solution Manager security vulnerability
An attacker authenticated as a user with a non-administrative role and a common remote execution authorization in SAP Solution Manager and ABAP managed systems (ST-PI) - versions 2088_1_700, 2008_1_710, 740, can use a vulnerable interface to execute an application function to perform actions which they would not normally be permitted to perform. Depending on the function executed, the attack can read or modify any user or application data and can make the application unavailable.

Matched remediation archetype
Command, code, expression, and template injection
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace untrusted values to process execution, interpreters, evaluators, template engines, dynamic imports, and administrative scripting features.
- Determine whether the affected path is reachable across each trust boundary and which service account or host privilege it inherits.
- Review configuration for optional execution features, unsafe compatibility modes, and shell invocation.
Remediate safely
- Replace string-built commands or evaluated code with fixed operations and structured argument APIs that do not invoke a shell.
- Use strict allowlists for operation identifiers and reject unexpected input before it reaches any interpreter.
- Update the affected component and add inert regression tests covering metacharacters, encoding variants, and alternate request paths.
