Title: SAP NetWeaver Password Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
SAP NetWeaver is a platform for enterprise applications.
The software is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability because it fails to properly secure communication channels between clients and servers. Specifically, SAP GUI clients and ABAP application servers use the 'Dynamic Information and Action Gateway' (DIAG) and 'Remote Function Call' (RFC) protocols to transmit authentication credentials.
The credentials are transmitted in a compressed format; this is not intended as an encryption method but may resemble encrypted data when captured traffic is inspected. When captured packets are decompressed, the authentication credentials are available in plain text.
Successful exploits will allow attackers to obtain sensitive information that may aid in further attacks.
