[CVE-2020-6287] SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA (LM Configuration Wizard) Authentication Bypass (Create Simple & Administrator Java User)

SAP NetWeaver is SAP’s integrated technology platform and the technical foundation of all SAP applications since SAP Business Suite. SAP NetWeaver is a service-oriented application and integration platform that provides a development and running environment for SAP applications, and can also be used for custom development and integration with other applications and systems. SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA (LM Configuration Wizard), versions 7.30, 7.31, 7.40, 7.50, does not perform an authentication check which allows an attacker without prior authentication to execute configuration tasks to perform critical actions against the SAP Java system, including the ability to create an administrative user, and therefore compromising Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of the system, leading to missing authentication check.
