SAP Busines Objects Business Intelligence Platform (Visual Difference Application) - versions 420, 430, allows an authenticated attacker who has access to BI admin console to send crafted queries and extract data from the SQL backend. On successful exploitation, the attacker can cause limited impact on confidentiality and integrity of the application
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
