CVE-2026-66763
SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform stores certain sensitive credentials associated with user objects using a hard-coded cryptographic key. An attacker with high privileges and local access to the server could retrieve these objects and decrypt the stored credentials. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to obtain sensitive authentication data and modify protected information, resulting in a high impact on confidentiality and integrity. There is no impact on availability.
What this means for your business
- An attacker can use it only with access to the machine itself, with an administrator login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.
- FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.2% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 8% of all known flaws.
What to do
- 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
- 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
