CVE-2026-24324
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 BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (AdminTools) allows an authenticated attacker with user privileges to execute a specific query in AdminTools that could cause the Content Management Server (CMS) to crash, rendering the CMS partially or completely unavailable and resulting in the denial of service of the Content Management Server (CMS). Successful exploitation impacts system availability, while confidentiality and integrity remain unaffected.
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 is a denial of service vulnerability in SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform where an authenticated user with standard user privileges can execute a specific query through AdminTools that triggers a crash in the Content Management Server (CMS), making it partially or completely unavailable.

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 SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform versionAccess the SAP BusinessObjects Central Management Console (CMC) or check the installation via SAP BusinessObjects Installation Manager. In CMC, go to 'About' or check the version through the 'Servers' node showing CMS version information.Affected if Installed version equals 430, 2025, or 2027 (or specific SPs/patches of these versions)
-
Verify AdminTools module access for standard usersIn the CMC, navigate to 'Applications' and check the permissions assigned to standard user accounts for AdminTools. Verify which user groups have access to AdminTools functionality.Affected if Standard (non-admin) users have permission to access and execute queries through AdminTools
-
Confirm Content Management Server (CMS) is runningIn the CMC, go to the 'Servers' node and locate the CMS server. Check its status indicator (green for running, red for stopped). Alternatively, attempt to log in to the CMC to verify CMS responsiveness.Affected if CMS is currently unresponsive, showing as stopped, or exhibits intermittent availability issues
-
Review CMS server logs for crash eventsAccess the CMS trace logs located in the SAP BusinessObjects logging directory (typically under the 'logging' or ' traces' folder in the installation directory). Search for recent timestamps and error entries indicating unexpected termination or query-related failures.Affected if Logs contain recent CMS crash events or fatal errors associated with AdminTools query execution
Your environment is affected if you run version 430, 2025, or 2027 of SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform, standard users have AdminTools access, and the CMS shows instability or recent crash events linked to AdminTools queries.

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 available SAP security patches for this vulnerability. Until patched, implement additional monitoring for abnormal AdminTools query patterns and consider restricting AdminTools access to essential administrative personnel only.
