SAP Note 1631354 - Update 1 to Security Note 1616058

Component : User Management Engine -

Summary :
Security note 1616058 has been updated to replace previous workaround instructions with permanent correction instructions due to an incompatible change in the SPML service. This change now requires SPML requests to have a specific HTTP header ("X-Requested-With": "XMLHttpRequest"). Patches are available, and if unable to update, users can deactivate the header check by modifying the UME property. Enhanced security measures such as URL filters through ICM, load balancers, or firewalls are recommended if this property is disabled. Users should revert any temporary fixes and update their AS Java to apply these corrections effectively.
