SAP October patches fixe the first Hot News note for BusinessObjects

An XXE vulnerability has been identified in OPC Foundation UA .NET Sample Code before 2017-03-21 and Local Discovery Server (LDS) before 1.03.367. Among the affected products are Siemens SIMATIC PCS7 (All versions V8.1 and earlier), SIMATIC WinCC (All versions < V7.4 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC NET PC Software, and SIMATIC IT Production Suite. By sending specially crafted packets to the OPC Discovery Server at port 4840/tcp, an attacker might cause the system to access various resources chosen by the attacker.

Buffer overflow in OPC UA applications allows remote attackers to trigger a stack overflow with carefully structured requests.

An XXE vulnerability in the OPC UA Java and .NET Legacy Stack can allow remote attackers to trigger a denial of service.

SAP HANA (versions 1.0 and 2.0) Extended Application Services classic model OData parser does not sufficiently validate XML. By exploiting, an unauthorized hacker can cause the database server to crash.

In Impact and Lineage Analysis in SAP Data Services, version 4.2, the management console does not sufficiently validate user-controlled inputs, which results in Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform 4.10 and 4.20 (Web Intelligence DHTML client) does not sufficiently encode user-controlled inputs, resulting in Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

Under certain conditions the backup server in SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE), versions 15.7 and 16.0, allows an attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted.

In SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP, from 7.0 to 7.02, 7.30, 7.31, 7.40 and from 7.50 to 7.53, applications do not sufficiently encode user-controlled inputs, resulting in Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

Under certain conditions SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform 4.10 and 4.20 allows an attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted.

SAP Fiori 1.0 for SAP ERP HCM (Approve Leave Request, version 2) application allows an attacker to trick an authenticated user to send unintended request to the web server. This vulnerability is due to insufficient CSRF protection.

Following the Gardener architecture, the Kubernetes apiserver of a Gardener managed shoot cluster resides in the corresponding seed cluster. Due to missing network isolation a shoot's apiserver can access services/endpoints in the private network of its corresponding seed cluster. Combined with other minor Kubernetes security issues, the missing network isolation theoretically can lead to compromise other shoot or seed clusters in the "Gardener" context. The issue is rated high due to the high impact of a potential exploitation in "Gardener" context. This was fixed in Gardener release 0.12.4.
