Under certain conditions, Internet Communication Manager (ICM) or SAP Web Dispatcher - versions KERNEL 7.22, KERNEL 7.53, KERNEL 7.54, KRNL64UC 7.22, KRNL64UC 7.22EXT, KRNL64UC 7.53, KRNL64NUC 7.22, KRNL64NUC 7.22_EXT, WEBDISP 7.22_EXT, WEBDISP 7.53, WEBDISP 7.54, could allow an attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted causing high impact on confidentiality.

SAP Web Dispatcher and Internet Communication Manager allow an attacker with administrative privileges to enable debugging trace mode with a specific parameter value. This exposes unencrypted passwords in the logs, causing a high impact on the confidentiality of the application. There is no impact on integrity or availability.

Elasticsearch generally filters out sensitive information and credentials before logging to the audit log. It was found that this filtering was not applied when requests to Elasticsearch use certain deprecated URIs for APIs. The impact of this flaw is that sensitive information such as passwords and tokens might be printed in cleartext in Elasticsearch audit logs. Note that audit logging is disabled by default and needs to be explicitly enabled and even when audit logging is enabled, request bodies that could contain sensitive information are not printed to the audit log unless explicitly configured.
