Updated: 11.10.2026

SAP released 38 Security Notes on the November 2026 Patch Day. Nine are Critical, and 13 are High, with the most urgent issues affecting SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP, SAP Web Dispatcher, SAP Gateway, S4CRM, and SAP BusinessObjects. The current note set includes memory corruption, authentication bypass, code injection, cross-site request forgery, and XML external entity vulnerabilities. The total comprises 35 new SAP notes and three updates identified in the overview; this report also covers four High-priority GitHub advisories, which are counted separately from the SAP Security Notes.

Key Takeaways

  • Prioritize the CVSS 10.0 issues in ICM, Web Dispatcher, Gateway, and SAML authentication: Notes 3778530, 3778556, 3798345, and 3849308. Reachability and authentication configuration determine which systems need the earliest maintenance windows.
  • Treat Notes 3792735, 3809153, and 3834842 as paths from limited application access to code or command execution. Review technical users, remote authorizations, and access to XML transformation functionality alongside patching.
  • Web Dispatcher and HANA deployments need deployment-specific handling. Notes 3778556, 3804858, and 3805681 include distinct XSA fixes, while Note 3803832 applies only to specified ABAP/Java routing configurations.
  • Include application dependencies in the patch plan. The four GitHub advisories address Python identity verification and tenant isolation, JavaScript credential logging, and isolation of legacy Incus sandboxes in SAP/astonish.
  • Keep the Medium and Low notes in the monthly cycle. Destination allowlists, password-file migration, browser content controls, and authorization checks require configuration or access reviews that a patch installation alone may not complete.

Critical-Priority Security Notes

The following nine notes require the closest attention this month. High-priority issues in reachable infrastructure and application dependencies also deserve immediate remediation planning.

Priority: High

Source: GitHub Security Advisory, SAP/cloud-sdk-python

  • What Is Affected: IASContextProvider in the pip package sap-cloud-sdk, versions earlier than 0.63.1. The provider is registered by default through application bootstrapping.
  • Scope of Use: Relevant where applications trust runtime-context identities for telemetry, logs, audit events, or tenant routing. Review how downstream consumers use those identities.
  • Nature of the Vulnerability: The provider reads identity claims without validating the JWT signature. CVSS is 7.5, with no privileges or user interaction required and high integrity impact.
  • Attack Scenarios: A remote caller could supply an untrusted token naming another tenant or user, causing the forged identity to propagate into runtime-context consumers.
  • Business Impact: Misattributed audit events, logs, and telemetry can weaken accountability; tenant routing based on the forged context can also become untrustworthy. The source vector does not establish confidentiality or availability impact.
  • Mitigation and Recommendations: Upgrade to 0.63.1, which verifies signatures and returns an empty context when verification cannot succeed. Workarounds enforce signature verification at ingress or supply an explicitly verified TokenVerifier. Validate the application’s IAS verification configuration.

3833364 / CVE-2026-120009: Code Injection vulnerability in SAP ABAP Developer Tools (AMDP Data Preview)

Priority: High

Update to Security Note; original Patch Day not specified in the SAP source (PDF version 6).

  • What Is Affected: AMDP Data Preview in ABAP Developer Tools, component BC-DWB-AIE-DP. The PDF lists SAP_BASIS 740, a 750–816 From/To entry, and 920.
  • Scope of Use: Relevant to development-tool access and the affected data-preview functionality. Review developer and administrative permissions in systems where the feature is available.
  • Nature of the Vulnerability: Insufficient validation and authorization allow code injection. The CVSS 7.2 network attack requires high privileges but no user interaction.
  • Attack Scenarios: A privileged user could abuse the affected handling of expressions to execute unauthorized code or modify data beyond the intended preview function.
  • Business Impact: The note describes possible full compromise with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. Preview access can therefore carry consequences beyond viewing data.
  • Mitigation and Recommendations: Implement the correction instructions or support packages, which deprecate the affected functionality. Consult FAQ 3840292. The documented workaround revokes access to ABAP Development Tools completely and should be assessed for its effect on development and support activities.

GHSA-93c9-96j8-4vg9 / CVE-2026-109797: Cross-tenant sandbox takeover in SAP/astonish

Priority: High

Source: GitHub Security Advisory, SAP/astonish

  • What Is Affected: SAP/astonish versions earlier than v3.6.0 using the legacy Incus sandbox backend. Kubernetes and OpenShell deployments are not affected.
  • Scope of Use: Relevant where multiple teams use affected Incus sandbox-management handlers. Confirm the active backend rather than relying solely on the application’s package version.
  • Nature of the Vulnerability: Improper tenant isolation allows authenticated users to operate on another team’s containers. The CVSS 7.1 vector requires low privileges and no user interaction.
  • Attack Scenarios: A user could identify another team’s sandbox and perform unauthorized container operations, including exposure, proxying, or deletion.
  • Business Impact: The advisory identifies low confidentiality impact and high availability impact. Cross-team access or deletion can expose limited information and disrupt another team’s sandbox work.
  • Mitigation and Recommendations: Upgrade to v3.6.0, which adds tenant-aware session lookup or equivalent checks. No workaround is available. Verify the backend in use and review sandbox access boundaries after applying the fix.

Medium and Lower Priority Notes

The remaining 16 SAP notes address authorization, request handling, browser trust, and credential protection. Their lower scores often reflect required privileges, user interaction, or specific deployment conditions; several still require configuration changes or manual follow-up.

ABAP and Java service boundaries

Note 3793716 (RFC input-validation denial of service in AS ABAP, CVSS 6.5) allows authenticated requests to crash affected work processes; apply the kernel correction and consult FAQ 3794042. Note 3805959 (SSRF in the ABAP HTTP component, CVSS 6.5) can expose a victim’s information and allow limited changes after user interaction; implement the correction and the manual allowlist activities referenced in FAQ 3834382. Note 3839977 (authorization vulnerabilities in AS Java NWDI Cockpit, CVSS 6.5) covers separate information-disclosure and unauthorized-modification issues; apply the corrected server-side authorization checks. Note 3786876 (weak RFC callback cryptography in AS ABAP, CVSS 6.4) requires high privileges and access to communication between application servers, but can enable caller impersonation and unauthorized function execution; apply the kernel’s hardened HMAC calculation.

Web content, callbacks, and credential storage

Note 3797108 (CSS injection in Web Dynpro Java, CVSS 6.1) can load attacker-controlled styling after a user follows a malicious link, supporting interface deception and limited content disclosure; patch and explicitly allow required external theme hosts. Note 3806484 (reflected XSS in Visual Composer, CVSS 6.1) can execute script in a victim’s browser after interaction; the correction encodes reflected request parameters. Note 3782056 (outdated password hashing in Web Dispatcher and ICM, CVSS 6.0) can expose credentials to an administrator with access to stored data; patching must be followed by manual migration of existing password files/users, as described in FAQ 3842490. Note 3835738 (SSRF in AS Java WS-Addressing callbacks, CVSS 5.8) can expose information about connected systems without authentication; apply the patch, configure wsa.callback.whitelist, and review legitimate private-network callbacks before rollout.

User content and supporting service protection

Note 3671819 (XSS in applications based on SAP GUI for HTML, CVSS 5.4) is an update to the October 2026 Patch Day note, with revised correction-instruction information; apply the current correction and review documented changes to permitted HTML resources. Note 3792447 (broken access control in the Process Integration Test Tool, CVSS 5.3) exposes information through unauthenticated SOAP operations; the patch removes the affected functions, with implementation guidance in Note 952402. Note 3803144 (Apache Struts denial of service in BusinessObjects, CVSS 5.3 in the PDF) requires limited access and knowledge of internal identifiers but can cause excessive memory consumption; apply the packages that redirect the affected endpoint and update Struts to 6.11. Note 3740168 (credential disclosure in SAP Start Service and SAP Microsoft Management Console, CVSS 4.4) requires privileged local access to process memory; apply the applicable kernel, MMC, and HANA corrections that clear passwords after processing.

Portal, WebClient, and support-tool controls

Note 3801587 (CSRF in Enterprise Portal, CVSS 4.3) can cause a logged-on user to perform unintended changes to non-sensitive information; apply the endpoint protection supplied in the listed patches. Note 3101986 (WebClient UI CSP dependency support, CVSS 4.1) updates the April 2022 Patch Day note with textual changes to its title and symptom; apply the support package and applicable manual activity for S4FND 104, while reviewing the referenced CSP dependencies. Note 3155685 (WebClient UI CSP security misconfiguration, CVSS 4.1) updates the July 2026 Patch Day note with title and symptom changes; implement the correction instructions or support packages enabling CSP support for S4FND 104–106. Note 3802244 (missing authorization in SAP Solution Tools Plug-In, CVSS 3.1) permits restricted information access by an authenticated caller under specific conditions; apply the correction instructions or support package and review access to the affected remote functionality.

What Does This Patch Day Tell Us?

Three patterns stand out this month. First, identity and trust decisions remain central: the SAML authentication issue, Gateway access-control failure, and Python JWT advisory each allow an untrusted caller to influence an identity or trust boundary. Second, shared infrastructure is an availability concern: multiple Message Server, ICM, Web Dispatcher, and IGS issues can interrupt processing without authentication. Third, remediation often extends beyond installing a patch: Gateway parameters, password-file migration, callback allowlists, application removal, and dependency upgrades each require an operational follow-up.

Patching should be prioritized by exposure as much as by CVSS. Reachable ABAP authentication and Gateway services, Web Dispatcher instances, and affected remote execution paths need rapid handling, while configuration prerequisites should guide the scope of each change. The included SDK and sandbox advisories also require application-owner involvement, because package and backend choices determine exposure. Medium and Low notes belong in the same monthly cycle so that corrected code, permissions, and configuration reach production together.

Final Recommendations by Pathlock

  • Patch the nine Critical notes in score order: 3778530, 3778556, 3798345, 3849308, 3792735, 3809153, 3834842, 3804858, and 3799117. Follow with the 13 High-priority SAP notes and four included GitHub advisories, adjusting maintenance order for actual reachability and prerequisites.
  • Complete deployment-specific follow-up. Verify the applicable XSA versions, update and validate running kernel/IGS/Host Agent binaries, remove or disable the affected EDM application as directed, and confirm that corrected SDK packages are deployed in the running applications.
  • Review SAML verification, Gateway trust settings, RFC permissions, Message Server ports, and Web Dispatcher administration access before and after remediation. Use documented workarounds only where their prerequisites and functional effects are understood.
  • Close the Medium and Low backlog with explicit owners for destination and callback allowlists, existing password-file migration, external theme-host configuration, and remote-function authorization checks. Confirm functional behavior after these changes.
  • Validate isolation and accountability across ABAP, Java, and cloud applications. Review tenant-context consumers, sandbox permissions, credential-bearing logs, and privileged technical users; rotate or revoke credentials where evidence or investigation indicates exposure.
