SAP Security Patch Day – October 2022

SAP security Patch day

October 11th is not only the monthly SAP Security Patch Day. It is also the 1st day of the annual DSAG conference, this year taking place in Leipzig. The German-speaking SAP user community will meet in Leipzig from 11-13 October, and the topic of the SAP Security Dashboard is coming back. A holistic overview of current and actual vulnerabilities manifested in security events, including a reliable overview of relevant and pending SAP Security Patches, has been desired by SAP customers for many years. So, the desired dashboard would show 15 new SAP security notes for the October SAP Security Patch Day. Ideally, only those Notes applicable to the customer landscape would show as pending implementation. This would make patching considerably easier for customers, as manual checking for all systems is time-consuming and often prone to errors.

SecurityBridge customers already have access to a patch management dashboard, which is desired and demanded by many companies running SAP. Looking at the corrections released in October’s Patch Day, the dashboard is useful to quickly triage and coordinate patching based on the SAP products you have installed.

SAP Security Patches October 2022

From September 14th to October 11th, 22 SAP security patches were released or updated. Seventeen notes (15 new and two updates) were officially assigned to the October Patch Day by the SAP Response Team.

With a CVSS of 9.9, note 3242933 classifies as a “Hot News” priority. SAP corrects a file path traversal vulnerability in SAP Manufacturing Execution. However, there is one more “Hot News” note (CVSS 9.6), a patch dealing with a clickjacking vulnerability in the SAP Commerce login form ( SNote 3239152 ). Customers using the affected SAP products should take immediate action because, according to our experts, the existing vulnerabilities pose a direct exploitation risk.

We should be concerned about five other corrections for vulnerabilities with a high-priority classification. Users of the SAP 3D Visual Enterprise and SAP BusinessObjects products are affected. For a complete list of released SAP security patches, please see our overview below:

Use SecurityBridge Patch Management to never miss an important patch, applicable for your SAP products.

Webinar: SAP Security Baseline: Surviving an SAP Audit

With the recent increase in attention to SAP security from auditors, we decided to investigate SAP baselines. We took a closer look into what SAP baselines are, how they can help you, and how to survive an audit.
SAP security by design
Security-by-design is a principle that emphasizes the need to build security measures into software systems from the start rather than as an afterthought. SAP projects need to embed security conciseness to respect this principle and gain a cyber-resilient application. Thus, they should prioritize security when designing and implementing their SAP systems rather than attempting to bolt on security measures afterward. This can help to prevent security breaches and minimize the damage caused by cyberattacks.
coding
Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability in SAP is a type of security issue that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on a target system remotely. has gained control of a user's click, they can execute a range of actions, such as transferring funds, changing user settings, or stealing sensitive data.
Management Dashboard
SAP security provider SecurityBridge—now operating in the U.S.—today announced the latest addition to the SecurityBridge Platform—the Management Dashboard for SAP security. The SAP Management Dashboard is a no-cost, additional application for the existing SecurityBridge Platform that combines all SAP data aspects and presents the information through a customizable, single pane of glass security dashboard view.

SAP Cybersecurity- SAP Vulnerability
In recent years, cyberattacks against SAP systems have become more common, with attackers gaining network access and then exploring critical applications through port scanning and script-based exploration. Two examples of such attacks that use the SAP RFC SDK are the password lock attack and the password spray attack. In this article, we will outline how to detect these script-based attacks against SAP.
