----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sample Payload:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
GET /sap/admin/public/default.html HTTP/1.1
Host: 172.32.22.7:50000

Indicators of Success:
- Status code 200 for internal endpoints
- Difference between direct access (403/404) and smuggled (200)
- Access to otherwise restricted SAP services via loopback injection

Example Paths Tested:
- /sap/public/bc/icf/info
- /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/appl_soap_management
- /heapdump/
- /ctc/ConfigServlet
- /sap/public/bc/icf/logon.html
- /webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tc~lm~config~content/
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP, SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java, ABAP Platform, SAP Content Server 7.53 and SAP Web Dispatcher are vulnerable for request smuggling and request concatenation. An unauthenticated attacker can prepend a victim's request with arbitrary data. This way, the attacker can execute functions impersonating the victim or poison intermediary Web caches. A successful attack could result in complete compromise of Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of the system.
