Descriptions

The passwordCheck function in SAP Router 721 patch 117, 720 patch 411, 710 patch 029, and earlier terminates validation of a Route Permission Table entry password upon encountering the first incorrect character, which allows remote attackers to obtain passwords via a brute-force attack that relies on timing differences in responses to incorrect password guesses, aka a timing side-channel attack.

La función passwordCheck en SAP Router 721 patch 117, 720 patch 411, 710 patch 029, y anteriores termina la validación de una contraseña de entrada Route Permission Table al encontrarse con el primer carácter incorrecto. Esto permite que los atacantes remotos obtengan contraseñas mediante un ataque de fuerza bruta que depende de diferencias en la sincronización en las respuestas a adivinaciones incorrectas de contraseña. Esto también se conoce como ataque de sincronización de canal lateral.
