SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform Deserialization (3617142)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 271808

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform installed on the remote host is prior to 2025 SP000 000500, 4.3 SP004 001400, or 4.3 SP005 000200. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 3617142 advisory.

- Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache POI. The issue affects the parsing of OOXML format files like xlsx, docx and pptx. These file formats are basically zip files and it is possible for malicious users to add zip entries with duplicate names (including the path) in the zip. In this case, products reading the affected file could read different data because 1 of the zip entries with the duplicate name is selected over another but different products may choose a different zip entry. (CVE-2025-31672)

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

Solution

Upgrade to SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform version 2027 SP000 000000 / 2025 SP000 000200 / 4.3 SP004 001300 / 4.3 SP005 000000 or later.
