01

What, why and how

SAP GUI for Windows allows an unauthenticated attacker to exploit insecure obfuscation algorithms used by the GuiXT application to store user credentials. While this issue does not impact the Integrity or Availability of the application, it may have a Low impact on the Confidentiality of data.

What

SAP GUI for Windows allows an unauthenticated attacker to exploit insecure obfuscation algorithms used by the GuiXT application to store user credentials. While this issue does not impact the Integrity or Availability of the application, it may have a Low impact on the Confidentiality of data.

Why

The product stores a password in plaintext within resources such as memory or files.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
local access → Plaintext Storage of a Password → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
Attack surface
Local
Privileges required
None: unauthenticated exploitation is possible
User interaction
None
Attack complexity
Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
Security boundary
Changed: exploitation can affect a different security authority
Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-256

CWE-256: Plaintext Storage of a Password. The product stores a password in plaintext within resources such as memory or files.

CVSS vector
?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N

Common Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.

AVLocalAttack vector: The attacker needs local access to the vulnerable system.ACLowAttack complexity: No specialised conditions are required beyond attacker-controlled input.PRNonePrivileges required: The attacker does not need an account or existing privileges.UINoneUser interaction: No action by another user is required.SChangedScope: The attack can affect a component governed by a different security authority.CLowConfidentiality impact: A successful attack can cause a limited loss.INoneIntegrity impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.ANoneAvailability impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.
Post-exploitation / living off the land
Stolen credentials, tokens and legitimate administration functions may provide continued access without deploying a large custom toolset.

NCSC-NL · Dutch · NCSC-2025-0149Kwetsbaarheden verholpen in SAP producten

De kwetsbaarheden omvatten onder andere een onbeperkte bestandsuploadfout die ongeauthenticeerde gebruikers in staat stelt om kwaadaardige bestanden te uploaden, wat kan leiden tot uitvoer van willekeurige code. Daarnaast zijn er kwetsbaarheden gerapporteerd die voortkomen uit het ontbreken van noodzakelijke autorisatiecontroles, wat kan resulteren in ongeoorloofde toegang tot gevoelige gegevens en privilege-escalatie. SAP brengt de kwetsbaarheid met kenmerk CVE-2025-31324 opnieuw onder de aandacht. Deze kwetsbaarheid bevindt zich in de NetWeaver Visual Component en is in de maandelijkse update van april verholpen. Deze kwetsbaarheid is echter als ZeroDay actief misbruikt.
