Insufficient Authorization Checks
Adequate authorization checks are an important part of secure ABAP programming. In many statements, an appropriate authorization check is performed implicitly, for example:
- In CALL TRANSACTION (with the addition WITH AUTHORITY-CHECK) and in LEAVE TO TRANSACTION.
- When an authorization group is created for the called program in SUBMIT.
- Using the automatic authorization checks in the ABAP file interface.
There are, however, many critical statements where no implicit authorization checks are performed, for example:
- CALL TRANSACTION without the addition WITH AUTHORITY-CHECK (and if the table TCDCOUPLES does not contain any appropriate entries).
- SUBMIT for programs without authorization groups
- SQL reads performed on database tables
Any places in a program that a user can reach without sufficient authorizations and where no implicit authorization check takes place must be secured explicitly using the statement AUTHORITY-CHECK and the result of the check analyzed carefully.
A prerequisite for both implicit and explicit authorization checks is that all components required for the SAP authorization concept, such as authorizations, authorization objects, authorization objects, and so on are defined. Care must also be taken to set the check indicator correctly, to enable all required checks to take place.
Example
Checks explicitly whether the current user can create temporary programs. This check could be used to secure the ABAP command injections example.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_DEVELOP'
ID 'DEVCLASS' FIELD '$TMP'
ID 'OBJTYPE' FIELD 'PROG'
ID 'OBJNAME' DUMMY
ID 'P_GROUP' DUMMY
ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02'.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
LEAVE PROGRAM.
ENDIF.
