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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm SAP NetWeaver Process Integration installation
    Check your SAP system for the presence of SAP NetWeaver Process Integration component. Use transaction SM51 (Server) or check installed software components via SAP MOPZ or SAINT.
    Affected if The system has SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.50 installed.
  2. Verify exact product version
    Check the version of NetWeaver PI installed. Use transaction SM37 and view job details, or check via SAP MOPZ. Look for version information showing exactly 7.50.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 7.50.
  3. Identify Support Web Pages accessibility
    Check if Support Web Pages are accessible on the SAP system. These are typically accessed via web URLs containing /sap/support/ or similar paths. Test connectivity to known support page endpoints on the server.
    Affected if Support Web Pages are reachable without proper authentication or from unauthorized network locations.
  4. Review access control configuration on Support Web Pages
    Inspect the access control settings for Support Web Pages in the SAP system. Check the ICM (Internet Communication Manager) configuration and web dispatcher rules that govern these pages. Look for any misconfigured authentication or authorization settings.
    Affected if Support Web Pages allow unauthenticated access or lack proper authorization controls for restricted information.
  5. Test for information disclosure
    Attempt to access Support Web Pages with limited or no credentials. Observe if restricted system information, configuration details, or other sensitive data is returned without proper authentication.
    Affected if Restricted information is accessible without proper authentication or authorization.

A system is affected if it runs SAP NetWeaver Process Integration version 7.50 with Support Web Pages that lack proper access controls, allowing unauthorized disclosure of information.
