| CVE-2009-3960 | Information Disclosure in Adobe BlazeDS (Used by LiveCycle and ColdFusion) CVE-2009-3960 is an information disclosure vulnerability in Adobe BlazeDS, the Java-based remoting and messaging layer that ships with Adobe LiveCycle and is available with Adobe ColdFusion. An attacker can trigger the flaw by sending crafted requests to an application running an affected BlazeDS deployment, gaining access to information that should not be exposed. Successful exploitation can leak sensitive data and, as observed in the Cring ransomware campaign against unpatched ColdFusion servers, can serve as an initial foothold that leads to further compromise and ransomware deployment. Organizations running BlazeDS as part of LiveCycle or ColdFusion deployments are affected. The flaw has been exploited in the wild and was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2022-03-07, with ransomware use explicitly confirmed and a very high EPSS of 90%. Do: Apply updates per vendor instructions as required by CISA, upgrading BlazeDS, LiveCycle, and ColdFusion to the patched releases specified in Adobe's advisory. Prioritize internet-facing ColdFusion and LiveCycle servers, verify BlazeDS-related endpoints are patched, and check for signs of compromise given known ransomware use. Until patched, restrict external access to BlazeDS/ColdFusion endpoints where feasible. | — | 90% | KEV ransomware |

By maliciously crafting a sequence of request headers, an attacker may be able to cause a segmentation fault, or to force ap_find_token() to return an incorrect value.

The most severe note, tracked as 2622660, addresses multiple issues in the web browser controls used to display pages in SAP Business Client 6.5 PL5. The vulnerabilities affect the browser controls for Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) and the open source Chromium.
“The bugs concern vulnerabilities in web browser controls that are used to display pages in SAP Business Client 6.5 PL5. Web browser controls are programmable building blocks that software developers use to embed web pages in their applications.” reads the analysis of the Onapsis firm.
“The latter has been determined to show multiple weaknesses like memory corruption, information disclosure and more. Although the SAP note does not explicitly mention it, similar security flaws can be expected for IE,”
The April 2018 Security Patch Day also addresses a DoS flaw, tracked as CVE-2017-7668, in SAP Business One.
“An attacker can use Denial of service vulnerability for terminating a process of a vulnerable component.” reads the analysis published by the firm ERPScan. “For this time nobody can use this service, this fact negatively influences on a business processes, system downtime and business reputation as result. Install this SAP Security Note to prevent the risks.”
SAP also fixed an improper session management (CVE-2018-2408) affecting SAP Business Objects.
SAP also addressed a code injection vulnerability in SAP Visual Composer that could be exploited by attackers to inject code into the back-end application by sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request to the Visual Composer.
