CVE-2026-27688 | Missing Authorization check in SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP

Due to a missing authorization check in SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP, an authenticated attacker with user privileges could read Database Analyzer Log Files via a specific RFC function module. The attacker with the necessary privileges to execute this function module could potentially escalate their privileges and read the sensitive data, resulting in a limited impact on the confidentiality of the information stored. However, the integrity and availability of the system are not affected.

5.0 3.1 MEDIUM
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:N)
Data isn’t meaningfully altered or forged.
