CVE-2026-58233 SAP_SE CVE debrief
SAP Change and Transport System Attach Tool (ctsattach) allows an authenticated attacker to supply a specially crafted archive file which, when processed by the application's library, can trigger insecure deserialization and lead to remote code execution (RCE) on the system. Successful exploitation requires a victim to process the malicious archive, enabling the attacker to execute the RCE and extract sensitive information and gain control over the system and its processes. The vulnerability has a high impact on confidentiality and integrity of the data, with a low impact on the availability of the system. This vulnerability affects SAP users and administrators, who should take immediate action to protect their systems.
