CVE-2026-0488
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 · uneditedAn authenticated attacker in SAP CRM and SAP S/4HANA (Scripting Editor) could exploit a flaw in a generic function module call and execute unauthorized critical functionalities, which includes the ability to execute an arbitrary SQL statement. This leads to a full database compromise with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
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.

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.
-
Identify if Scripting Editor is accessible in your SAP systemCheck for Scripting Editor availability via transaction codes SE38, SE80, or by querying table Tadir for objects related to CRM scripting editor functionality. An authenticated user with access to these transactions indicates the component is present.Affected if Scripting Editor functionality is available and accessible to users in the system
-
Check SAP WebClient UI Framework versionQuery system table PRGN_CORR or check version via transaction SE03 -> Component version. Alternatively, inspect file SAPJSF in the MIME repository which contains framework version information.Affected if Installed version matches 700, 701, 730, 731, 746, 747, 748, 800, or 801
-
Check SAP S/4HANA system versionExecute transaction SNOTE or System -> Status -> SAP System to view the SAP_BASIS component version. The S/4HANA version corresponds to SAP_BASIS versions in the 102-109 range.Affected if S/4HANA version corresponds to SAP_BASIS 102 through 109
-
Check SAP NetWeaver ABAP versionExecute transaction SM37 or System -> Status to view the SAP Release and SAP_BASIS component version. Version 700 indicates the NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.00 release.Affected if SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP version equals 700
-
Verify user authentication contextReview system logs via transaction SM37 or security audit logs via SM20 to confirm if authenticated users have access to Scripting Editor transactions.Affected if Authenticated users have access to Scripting Editor transactions and the vulnerable version is installed
Your environment is affected if the Scripting Editor is accessible and you are running any of the listed vulnerable versions of SAP WebClient UI Framework, S/4HANA, or NetWeaver AS ABAP.

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 dataApply SAP security patches when available, restrict access to the Scripting Editor to essential personnel only, and implement additional input validation on the generic function module. Monitor database-level operations for suspicious activity.
