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
Due to a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP (Applications based on Business Server Pages), an unauthenticated attacker could craft a URL that exploits an unprotected URL parameter to embed a malicious script. If a victim clicks the link, the injected input is processed during web page generation, resulting in the execution of malicious content in the victim�s browser context. This could allow the attacker to access and/or modify information, impacting the confidentiality and integrity of the application, with no impact to 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.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP when processing Business Server Pages (BSP). An unauthenticated attacker can embed malicious script code into a URL parameter that gets reflected back without proper sanitization during page generation, allowing execution in the victim's browser context.

MitigationImplement proper input validation and output encoding for all URL parameters in the affected BSP pages. Consider deploying a web application firewall (WAF) as an interim control.

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. Verify SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP version
    Check the SAP system version by running transaction SM51 or using the SAP kernel version check (sapkernel -V). Compare the displayed version against the affected list: 700, 701, 702, 731, 740, 750, 751, 752, 753, 754, 755, 756.
    Affected if The installed SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP version matches one of the listed affected versions.
  2. Confirm BSP is enabled
    Check if Business Server Pages are enabled by accessing transaction SICF, filtering for BSP services, or checking the ICM monitor (transaction SMICM) for HTTP/HTTPS services that serve BSP applications.
    Affected if BSP-related HTTP services are active and accessible on the SAP system.
  3. Identify exposed BSP applications
    Review transaction SE80 or use transaction BSP_IDOC to list deployed BSP applications. Check which BSP applications are exposed via the Internet Communication Manager (ICM) and accessible via HTTP/HTTPS.
    Affected if Any BSP application is exposed via HTTP/HTTPS without proper input validation on URL parameters.
  4. Test for reflected XSS in BSP URLs
    Identify BSP pages by accessing known BSP entry points (for example, URLs containing /sap/bc/bsp). Inject a test script payload into URL parameters and observe if the payload is reflected unencoded in the HTTP response.
    Affected if URL parameters in BSP pages reflect user input without HTML encoding, allowing script execution in the browser.

If the SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP version is in the affected list and BSP applications are accessible via HTTP/HTTPS, the system is likely vulnerable to reflected XSS in BSP.
