SAP Security Patch Day – January 2021
Our team of experts follows the monthly releases of SAP Security Patches closely, to ensure our product customers are continuously updated & secured.
In 2021, SAP continues their praxis to release product corrections with security impact to its customers every second Tuesday of the month, 12th January.
Patching of enterprise-critical applications belongs to the category of security hygiene or housekeeping. The task of patching, given it’s done regularly and timely after the patch release date, addresses one important aspect of SAP security: resolving code vulnerabilities existing in the SAP standard product portfolio.
Targeting a „solid-state“ in SAP security, customers running SAP products need to carefully revise the following aspects – next to implementing released SAP Security Patches. Not exactly ordered by priority, start by measuring the hardening level of your SAP installations. Working with the principle of a security baseline helps you to master the creation, implementation, and enforcement of a system hardening standard, even within very complex landscapes.
Secondly, but no less important, is an accurate quality assurance of custom code, scouting for vulnerabilities introduced by the customer’s development team.
Previous releases
Since the January release is the first release of the New Year, it may be a good moment to also recap the releases of the past six months. Since mid last year SAP in average released 16 security relevant corrections a month. This months Patch Day, containing 17 patches, is slightly above average. With a publication of 21 corrections, the SAP Patch Day of October 2020 peeks out.
Our team has created a summary for all SAP Patch Days. Please find the most recent articles here:

Highlights
The SAP Patch Day of January provides 5 corrections with a priority „Hot News“, another one with priority „High“. In 2622660, SAP continues its efforts to continuously update the Google Chromium engine used within the SAP Business Client. The priority for the previous note remains „Hot News“ and thus updates should be continuously reviewed and evaluated in accordance with the customers’ use-case.
Note 2986980 was released to solve multiple vulnerabilities in SAP Business Warehouse’s Data Interface. We would like to highlight this correction particularly because it exists in the majority of SAP Business Warehouse and SAP BW4HANA versions.
While we are looking at SAP BW and SAP’s BW4HANA, another correction with CVSS 9.9, resolving a Code Injection flaw in the business warehouse product was released.
Wrapping up the „Hot News“ releases of the present month, an update for the CVSS 9.1 note 2979062 has been provided. The update provides an enhancement to code correction for UDDI Server.
A single note with priority „High“ for Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP and ABAP Platform was provided with note 3000306. In regards to 3000306, our experts have again highlighted the need to deactivate all services related to demo objects provided by SAP.
