Advisory

On 13.08.2024 a security relevant correction has been released by SAP SE. The manufacturer resolves an issue within Sybase platform.

SAP Note 3495876 addresses "[Multiple CVEs] Multiple vulnerabilities in SAP Replication Server (FOSS)" to prevent weak security function / cryptographic algorithm with a medium risk for exploitation.

A workaround does exist, according to SAP Security Advisory team. It is advisable to implement the correction as part of maintenance, the team suggests.

Risk specification

This note has been re-released with minor textual correction in the 'Symptom' section (no changes which require customer action). SAP Replication Server allows an authenticated attacker to leverage a vulnerability during the installation to exploit the system, leading to possible system compromise.

Solution

The application now has updated OpenSSL to version 1.1.1 and Spring Framework to version.3.31 Circumstances exist that prevent the timely installation of a patch provided by the manufacturer. In such cases, you may consider applying the suggested workaround as a temporary or compensating mitigation: "Update in progress".
