SAP WAS can log out users and redirect them

CVE-2005-3634 · published 20 years ago
Summary

The web server component of SAP (versions 6.10 through 7.00) lets a remote person force a logged‑in user to be signed out and sent to any website they choose. This happens because the server does not properly check special commands in the URL. Apply the vendor’s security update or block the vulnerable page to stop this behavior.
