The User Management Engine (UME) in NetWeaver Application Server for Java (NW AS Java) utilizes an obsolete cryptographic algorithm for encrypting User Mapping data. This weakness could allow an attacker with high-privileged access to exploit the vulnerability under specific conditions potentially leading to partial disclosure of sensitive information.This has low impact on confidentiality with no impact on integrity and availability of the application.
Weakness
The product stores or transmits sensitive data using an encryption scheme that is theoretically sound, but is not strong enough for the level of protection required.
