An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2020-6287 in the wild since at least 3 Nov 2021.\n\nAffected product: Sap Netweaver Application Server Java. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-6287/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-6287/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-6287","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-6287/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-6287","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-676j-vqr4-6w3h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute configuration tasks and create administrative users in SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA, leading to full system compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"sap","cpe":[{"product":"netweaver_application_server_java","vendor":"sap"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"}],"description":"SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA (LM Configuration Wizard), versions - 7.30, 7.31, 7.40, 7.50, does not perform an authentication check which allows an attacker without prior authentication to execute configuration tasks to perform critical actions against the SAP Java system, including the ability to create an administrative user, and therefore compromising Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of the system, leading to Missing Authentication Check.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2020-07-14","github_poc":7,"max_poc_stars":223,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2020-07-15T15:20:09Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/chipik/SAP_RECON","stars":223,"title":"PoC for CVE-2020-6287, CVE-2020-6286 (SAP RECON vulnerability)"},{"date":"2020-07-20T18:45:53Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/duc-nt/CVE-2020-6287-exploit","stars":96,"title":"PoC for CVE-2020-6287  The PoC in python for add user only, no administrator permission set.
