SAP Netweaver Visual Composer Multiple Vulnerabilities (May 2025)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 236840

Synopsis

The remote SAP Netweaver Visual Composer is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer is affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:

 - SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer Metadata Uploader is vulnerable when a privileged user can upload untrusted or malicious content which, when deserialized, could potentially lead to a compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the host system.
 (CVE-2025-42999)

 - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition or on Premise (SCM Master Data Layer (MDL)) allows an authenticated attacker with SAP standard authorization to execute a certain function module remotely and replace arbitrary ABAP programs, including SAP standard programs. This is due to lack of input validation and no authorization checks. This has low Confidentiality impact but high impact on integrity and availability to the application.
 (CVE-2025-43010)

 - Under certain conditions, SAP Landscape Transformation's PCL Basis module does not perform the necessary authorization checks, allowing authenticated users to access restricted functionalities or data. This can lead to a high impact on confidentiality with no impact on the integrity or availability of the application.
 (CVE-2025-43011)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Apply the appropriate patch according to the vendor advisory.
