Official description
SAP Commerce Cloud could retain a sample OAuth2 client with publicly documented sample credentials originating from sample configuration provided in SAP Help Portal documentation. If left unchanged, an unauthenticated attacker could use these well-known credentials to obtain a valid access token and invoke certain APIs to read and modify data. Successful exploitation results in high impact on confidentiality and integrity, with no impact on availability.

The underlying weakness: Use of Default Credentials
The product uses default credentials (such as passwords or cryptographic keys) for potentially critical functionality.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Prohibit use of default, hard-coded, or other values that do not vary for each installation of the product - especially for separate organizations.
- Force the administrator to change the credential upon installation.
- The product administrator could change the defaults upon installation or during operation.
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: none, automatable: yes, technical impact: total).
- Record last changed materially (score, affected products, status or references).
