SAP Commerce: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site
CVE-2022-41204 is a high-severity URL redirection to untrusted site vulnerability in SAP Commerce from SAP, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. Affected SAP Commerce versions: 1905; 2005; 2105, and others listed below. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.9% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 60% of scored CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Check which version of SAP Commerce you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Read the advisory on launchpad.support.sap.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
- Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.

Official description
An attacker can change the content of an SAP Commerce - versions 1905, 2005, 2105, 2011, 2205, login page through a manipulated URL. They can inject code that allows them to redirect submissions from the affected login form to their own server. This allows them to steal credentials and hijack accounts. A successful attack could compromise the Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability of the system.

The underlying weakness: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site
The web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Use an intermediate disclaimer page that provides the user with a clear warning that they are leaving the current site. Implement a long timeout before the redirect occurs, or force the user to click on the link. Be careful to avoid XSS problems (CWE-79) when generating the disclaimer page.
- When the set of acceptable objects, such as filenames or URLs, is limited or known, create a mapping from a set of fixed input values (such as numeric IDs) to the actual filenames or URLs, and reject all other inputs. For example, ID 1 could map to /login.asp and ID 2 could map to http://www.example.com/. Features such as the ESAPI AccessReferenceMap provide this capability.
- Ensure that no externally-supplied requests are honored by requiring that all redirect requests include a unique nonce generated by the application. Be sure that the nonce is not predictable (CWE-330).
