SAP Note 1394100 - Security note: Access to RFC-enabled modules via SOAP

Component : Internet Communication Framework - RFC

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1394100 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The SAP Note addresses a security risk in ABAP systems where unauthorized execution of remote-enabled function modules can occur via SOAP and HTTP channels if the ICF service "/sap/bc/soap/rfc" is incorrectly activated. This vulnerability arises if the RFC authorization is too permissive. Users are advised to check the use of this service in their landscape and deactivate it if not required. For landscapes where the service must remain active, ensure that authorizations are tightly controlled. Additional guidance is provided for logging server activity to track unauthorized access in the ICMan server log, and for migrating to Web Service Framework post-Web AS 640.
