CVE-2013-7367
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedSAP Enterprise Portal does not properly restrict access to the Federation configuration pages, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceThis vulnerability in SAP Enterprise Portal involves improper access controls on Federation configuration pages, allowing unauthenticated or low-privilege remote attackers to access sensitive configuration interfaces and escalate privileges to higher system access levels.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm SAP Enterprise Portal installationIdentify if SAP Enterprise Portal is deployed in your environment by checking for SAP portal components, web applications, or the SAP Enterprise Portal service running on your servers.Affected if SAP Enterprise Portal is present and running in the environment
-
Locate Federation configuration endpointsIdentify the URL paths or web service endpoints related to Federation configuration within your SAP Enterprise Portal installation. Common patterns include /irj/portal or federation-related servlet mappings.Affected if Federation configuration interfaces are exposed through web URLs accessible to the portal
-
Test unauthenticated access to Federation pagesAttempt to access Federation configuration pages directly without providing credentials or using a low-privilege user account. This can be done by navigating to suspected Federation configuration URLs in a browser or using a web request tool.Affected if Configuration pages are accessible without authentication or with low-privilege credentials
-
Verify access control configurationReview the SAP Enterprise Portal access control lists, role assignments, and authentication settings for Federation-related components to determine if proper authorization is enforced.Affected if No role-based access controls are configured or anonymous access is permitted for Federation configuration interfaces
-
Check for privilege escalation vectorsExamine whether low-privilege users can modify Federation settings, create new trust relationships, or access administrative functions through the exposed configuration interfaces.Affected if Low-privilege users can access or modify sensitive Federation configuration settings
Your environment is affected if SAP Enterprise Portal is running and Federation configuration pages are accessible without proper authentication or low-privilege users can access sensitive configuration interfaces.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataRestrict access to Federation configuration pages by implementing proper authentication checks and role-based authorization controls on the affected SAP Enterprise Portal components.
