CVE-2026-76969 is a critical flaw (CVSS 9.4) in SAP's @sap/cds-mtxs npm package, the multitenancy component of the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model (CAP), which performs insufficient checks on certain functionality used in multitenant CAP applications with extensibility enabled. An unauthenticated attacker who can reach the affected endpoints can send specially crafted requests that cause the service to disclose sensitive credentials. With those credentials, the attacker can replace or delete tenant data, resulting in high impact to integrity and availability and partial impact to the confidentiality of business data. Only deployments running multitenant CAP applications on @sap/cds-mtxs with extensibility enabled are affected. Exploitation has not been observed: there is no known public proof of concept, the issue is not in CISA KEV, and EPSS estimates only a ~0.3% probability of exploitation within 30 days.

What to do: Update the @sap/cds-mtxs dependency in all multitenant CAP applications to the fixed version given in SAP's security advisory for CVE-2026-76969 (part of SAP's September 2026 patch batch) and redeploy the affected applications. Audit whether your CAP applications use multitenancy with extensibility enabled and whether the mtxs endpoints are reachable without authentication, and rotate any tenant-scoped credentials that could have been exposed. As an interim mitigation, restrict network access to the mtxs/sidecar endpoints to trusted callers.

Description

@sap/cds-mtxs NPM library does not perform sufficient checks on certain functionality used in multitenant CAP applications with extensibility enabled. An unauthenticated attacker could send specially crafted requests to obtain sensitive credentials and abuse them to replace or delete tenant data. Successful exploitation can result in a high impact on availability and integrity of the application. There may also be partial impact to the confidentiality of business data.

SAP Patches Maximum Severity “Overpass” Flaw

Onapsis warns over 10,000 internet-facing SAP systems may be exposed to maximum-severity unauthenticated RCE flaw CVE-2026-44756 in SAP Extended Passport.

Onapsis Research Labs discovered CVE-2026-44756, a memory corruption flaw in SAP Extended Passport (EPP) processing caused by missing boundary validation during deserialization. The bug is reachable from the SAP GUI and RFC layers, is remotely exploitable without authentication by default, and could let attackers run arbitrary OS commands with SAP administrative privileges. No active exploitation was observed at publication. Onapsis also flagged critical S4GET bug CVE-2026-58240 (CVSS 9.8) in the S/4HANA Message Server, credential disclosure CVE-2026-76969 in SAP CAP, and improper access control CVE-2026-66768 in NetWeaver.

SAP Patches Critical Extended Passport Processing Vulnerability

SAP patches CVSS 10.0 flaw CVE-2026-44756 (OVERPASS) enabling unauthenticated RCE in S/4HANA and NetWeaver, plus three other criticals; no in-the-wild exploitation reported.

CVE-2026-44756 is a CVSS 10.0 memory corruption flaw in Extended Passport (EPP) deserialization, triggered when a user session opens across web, SAP GUI, and RFC vectors. Exploitation yields command execution as the SAP OS account, database credential and password hash recovery, session reading, and data or binary modification; affected products include S/4HANA, ERP/ECC, NetWeaver, Web Dispatcher, and BW/4HANA. Three other criticals were patched: CVE-2026-58240 (S4GET, missing authentication affecting all S/4HANA 2025 and earlier releases), CVE-2026-76969 (CAP credential disclosure), and CVE-2026-66768 (NetWeaver access control). Onapsis and SAP report no indicators of in-the-wild exploitation.

SAP Patches CVSS 10.0 Kernel Flaw Enabling Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution
