SAP Fiori Panel Detection Scanner

SAP Fiori is an innovative user experience (UX) for SAP software and applications. Used primarily by enterprise-level businesses, SAP Fiori provides a consistent, role-based user experience across various devices and deployment options. Fiori’s application suite aims to improve productivity and reduce training efforts by offering intuitive, easily accessible business applications. The software is commonly used in industries with significant enterprise resource planning (ERP) needs. SAP Fiori is designed to work with SAP’s back-end systems and is deployed in cloud, on-premise, or hybrid environments. Its use extends across numerous departments, including finance, sales, human resources, and more.

Panel detection refers to identifying the presence of admin or login panels, which can be the initial indicators of broader vulnerabilities. Such detection can assist in identifying unauthorized access points within a system. In the context of SAP Fiori, the panel detection seeks to confirm if the login interface is exposed and readily accessible, which could denote a potential security misconfiguration. Understanding if login panels are exposed inadvertently can help administrators re-evaluate their security setups. Detection doesn't imply a breach but aims to forewarn organizations about potential vectors of attack. The presence of accessible login panels can be an attractant to threat actors seeking to exploit them for unauthorized entry.

The scanner examines specific URLs associated with SAP Fiori to detect login panels by looking for known keywords and patterns within the page content. It utilizes common paths such as “/fiori” or “/irj/portal/fiori” and analyzes their response bodies for specific indicators like ‘fioriLogin’ or '/irj/portal/fiori'. The methodology ensures that the detection process is precise, relying on both the request path and response content to verify the presence of a Fiori login interface. By focusing on standard deployment locations and user interaction markers, the scanner efficiently determines panel exposure. The matching process involves logical "and/or" conditions to ascertain consistent keyword presence, ensuring reliable detection without false positives.

When the vulnerability is exploited, it might allow unauthorized users to gain knowledge of or access to potentially sensitive business application areas. This could lead to unauthorized data access, data modification, or unapproved application usage. In environments where crucial business operations depend on SAP Fiori’s applications, the impacts could be severe, possibly resulting in data loss, business disruption, or financial harm. An accessible login panel could also be misused to perform adversarial brute force attacks or phishing campaigns. Organizations might face reputational damage and compliance issues if the vulnerability leads to data breaches. Thus, securing application endpoints where login panels may be exposed is vital.
