SAP has issued patches for 16 vulnerabilities, including a critical SSRF flaw in NetWeaver’s Adobe Document Services.
SAP addressed 16 vulnerabilities as part of its December 2024 Security Patch Day. The company released nine new and four updated security notes.
The most severe of these vulnerabilities is a critical issue, tracked as CVE-2024-47578 (CVSS score of 9.1), in the Adobe Document Service component of NetWeaver. An attacker with administrative privileges can exploit the vulnerability to send a crafted request from a vulnerable web application. Successful exploitation can allow attackers to read or modify any file and/or make the entire system unavailable.
The vulnerability impacts versions ADSSSAP 7.50.
“Adobe Document Service allows an attacker with administrator privileges to send a crafted request from a vulnerable web application. It is usually used to target internal systems behind firewalls that are normally inaccessible to an attacker from the external network, resulting in a Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerability.” reads the advisory. “On successful exploitation, the attacker can read or modify any file and/or make the entire system unavailable.”
The company also addressed other two vulnerabilities, tracked as CVE-2024-47579 and CVE-2024-47580, as part of the same security notes that was labeled as ‘hot news’.

“These vulnerabilities, tracked as CVE-2024-47578, CVE-2024-47579, and CVE-2024-47580, collectively expose organizations to potential server-side request forgery (SSRF), unauthorized file access, and information disclosure.” reads the analysis published by Onapsis.
