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 · unedited
SAP Fiori App Intercompany Balance Reconciliation does not perform necessary authorization checks for an authenticated user, resulting in escalation of privileges. This has high impact on confidentiality and integrity of the application ,availability is not impacted.

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 confidence

This is an authorization vulnerability in SAP Fiori App Intercompany Balance Reconciliation where the application fails to perform proper authorization checks for authenticated users, allowing privilege escalation. An authenticated attacker can access functionality or data beyond what their assigned role should permit, impacting confidentiality and integrity.

MitigationImplement proper role-based authorization checks in the Intercompany Balance Reconciliation application and enforce least-privilege access controls to ensure users can only access data and functions appropriate to their assigned roles.

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. Identify if Intercompany Balance Reconciliation app is deployed
    In SAP Fiori Admin UI (FLC_FND_SUS or Fiori Configuration), search for app 'Intercompany Balance Reconciliation' or check the app catalog for IC_BALANCE_RECONCILIATION. Alternatively, query SAP Fiori launchpad catalog entries for this application name.
    Affected if The app appears in the deployed Fiori apps catalog
  2. Determine the application version
    In SAP Fiori Admin, select the app and view its version details. Also check SAP Note 2564101 or relevant SAP Fiori apps reference for the deployed version of IC Balance Reconciliation.
    Affected if Version cannot be determined or is unknown - the vulnerability may still apply
  3. Review user role assignments for the app
    Use transaction PFCG to review roles assigned to users. Check if roles grant access to transaction /n/UI2/IC_BALANCE_RECONCILIATION or related OData service. Compare assigned roles against the principle of least privilege.
    Affected if Users have roles that grant broader access than their job function requires
  4. Check for authorization bypass indicators
    Audit logs via transaction SLG1 (Object: /IWFND/ERROR_LOG or /UI2/CHIP). Look for requests to Intercompany Balance Reconciliation where users access data outside their organizational scope (check tables like FAGLFLEXT, GLPCA for unauthorized access patterns).
    Affected if Logs show users accessing data or functions outside their assigned role scope

User is affected if the Intercompany Balance Reconciliation Fiori app is deployed and authenticated users can access data or functionality beyond what their assigned SAP role should permit.
