The BW Database Interface does not perform necessary authorization checks for an authenticated user, resulting in escalation of privileges that allows the user to practically read out any database table.

SAP Business Warehouse, versions 700, 701, 702, 711, 730, 731, 740, 750, 782 and SAP BW/4HANA, versions 100, 200, allow a low privileged attacker to inject code using a remote enabled function module over the network. Via the function module an attacker can create a malicious ABAP report which could be used to get access to sensitive data, to inject malicious UPDATE statements that could have also impact on the operating system, to disrupt the functionality of the SAP system which can thereby lead to a Denial of Service.

The BW Database Interface allows an attacker with low privileges to execute any crafted database queries, exposing the backend database. An attacker can include their own SQL commands which the database will execute without properly sanitizing the untrusted data leading to SQL injection vulnerability which can fully compromise the affected SAP system.
