CVE-2025-42928

Under certain conditions, a high privileged user could exploit a deserialization vulnerability in SAP jConnect to launch remote code execution. The system may be vulnerable when specially crafted input is used to exploit the vulnerability resulting in high impact on confidentiality, integrity and availability of the system.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Potential Mitigations

• Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
• An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
