SAP's NetWeaver Application Server Java was found vulnerable to a critical directory traversal flaw identified as CVE-2017-12637. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, potentially leading to a compromise of sensitive information and system integrity. The flaw, given a CVSS score of 7.5, indicates a high severity risk. Being actively exploited in the wild, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has mandated federal agencies to mitigate this risk urgently by April 9, 2025. Failure to patch or apply CISA's advisories could lead to serious data breaches, affecting customer and organizational data and disrupting significant operational capacities.
