Summary

SAP Gateway is affected by a broken access control flaw in which its default Access Control List grants high privileges to external attackers by treating them as internal application servers. A remote attacker who can reach the Gateway over the network, without logging in, could use this to perform unauthorized actions in the application environment, with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Written by anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5 from the sources below. Verify against them.

Read the original description

SAP Gateway activates the default Access Control List with high privileges allowing categorization of external attacker as internal application server. As a result an unauthenticated attacker with network access to the SAP Gateway could exploit this weakness to potentially perform unauthorized actions within the application environment, resulting in a high impact on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.

Check your systems with an agent

Paste this into a coding or ops agent. It checks your systems read-only and reports a table per asset.

Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-89103 (Broken Access Control in SAP Gateway), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-89103 (entry last updated 2026-11-10):
Affected:
- SAP_SE SAP Gateway: versions KRNL64NUC 7.22, 7.22EXT, KRNL64UC 7.22, 7.53, 8.04, KERNEL 7.22, 7.54, 7.77, 7.93, 9.16, 9.20, 9.21
Fixed versions: none listed yet.
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-89103 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-89103 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://me.sap.com/notes/3798345
- https://url.sap/sapsecuritypatchday
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.

Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.
