Title
Denial of service (DOS) in SAP NetWeaver (remote service for Xcelsius)
Summary
SAP NetWeaver remote service for Xcelsius allows an attacker with network access and high privileges to execute arbitrary code on the affected system due to insufficient input validation and improper handling of remote method calls. Exploitation does not require user interaction and could lead to service disruption or unauthorized system control. This has high impact on integrity and availability, with no impact on confidentiality.
Severity
