The SAP Application Interface Framework (Message Dashboard) - versions AIF 703, AIFX 702, S4CORE 101, SAP_BASIS 755, 756, SAP_ABA 75C, 75D, 75E, application allows an Excel formula injection. An authorized attacker can inject arbitrary Excel formulas into fields like the Tooltip of the Custom Hints List. Once the victim opens the downloaded Excel document, the formula will be executed. As a result, an attacker can cause limited impact on the confidentiality and integrity of the application.
This vulnerability carries a MEDIUM severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 4.4, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network but requires specific conditions to be met though user interaction is required requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts limited data confidentiality, limited integrity, for affected systems. Impacting 4 products from sap, from sap, from sap and 1 other, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2023, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For sap's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
