ERP Security Advisory

The threat is
already inside
your SAP.

Traditional security tools have no visibility inside your ERP. Mid-market companies running SAP are exposed in ways their teams don't see coming — and attackers do.

Active SAP Threat Intelligence
CVE-2026-44747
CVSS 9.9 — Critical
SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP — Memory Corruption
Your SAP ABAP system can be fully compromised by someone with basic user access — no special privileges needed. Once exploited, the attacker owns your data, your transactions, and your system.
CVE-2026-27690
CVSS 9.1 — Critical
SAP Approuter — HTTP Request Smuggling
An attacker with no credentials whatsoever can intercept and manipulate traffic flowing through your SAP environment. Your users' sessions and sensitive data are exposed before they ever reach your application.
CVE-2026-40128
CVSS 9.0 — Critical
SAP NetWeaver AS Java — Directory Traversal
An unauthenticated attacker can reach outside the boundaries of your SAP Java system and read or modify files they were never meant to see — including configuration, credentials, and business data.
CVE-2026-44761
CVSS 8.8 — High
SAP Commerce Cloud — Insecure Sample Credentials
Default sample credentials left active in your SAP Commerce Cloud environment give any attacker a known username and password to walk straight in. A configuration oversight your team may not even know exists.

The Problem

Your security stack is blind inside ERP.

Every tool watching your perimeter sees network traffic. SAP breaches happen inside the application — in a language your SOC has never learned to read.

01
No credentials required
CVE-2025-31324 allows any attacker to upload a webshell and execute commands directly on your SAP server by targeting a single URL. No username. No password. No warning from any traditional security tool.
April 2025 · Actively Exploited
02
RFC trust chains pivot laterally
SAP systems trust each other through RFC connections configured years ago and never audited. An attacker in your development environment can walk into production without a single credential — using trust paths you built yourself.
Persistent · Architectural
03
Fraud is invisible to your SIEM
Payment redirection, ghost employees, inventory manipulation — all executed inside SAP transactions your SIEM cannot parse. The money is gone before any alert fires.
Financial Impact · Silent
04
Attackers persist after patching
Once inside, threat actors plant webshells in multiple locations and create rogue SAP users with elevated privileges. These survive patching — a second wave exploited previously planted webshells weeks after CVE-2025-31324 was remediated.
Post-Exploitation · Persistence
"In April 2025, hundreds of SAP systems were completely compromised — zero credentials required. Your firewall didn't see it. Your endpoint tool didn't see it. Your SOC didn't see it. None of those tools can see inside SAP. The question isn't whether your SAP system has vulnerabilities. Every SAP system does. The question is whether you know what they are before someone else finds them first."
Corsentrix Threat Intelligence — 2025
The Corsentrix Approach

A continuous security program — not a one-time fix.

ERP security is not a project with a start and end date. Threats evolve, access drifts, and systems change. The Corsentrix ERP Security Lifecycle is a structured, repeating program that keeps your posture current at every stage.

Corsentrix ERP Security Lifecycle Five-stage continuous ERP security program: Assess, Govern, Detect, Remediate, Monitor. Corsentrix ERP Security Lifecycle A CONTINUOUS SECURITY PROGRAM CORSENTRIX ERP Security Lifecycle 01 Assess Identify gaps & risk 02 Govern Access, roles & compliance 03 Detect Threats & vulnerabilities 04 Remediate Patch, fix & harden 05 Monitor Ongoing posture & alerts
"Most organizations begin SAP security assessments with maturity scores between 30 and 40% — even among those that have already prioritized SAP security."

Solution Areas

The full ERP security lifecycle, covered.

ERP security isn't a single problem — it's a lifecycle. Every solution area below maps to a real, recurring risk in mid-market ERP environments. We address them individually or together, depending on where you are and where the gaps are.

01 — ERP Access & Authorization Governance
Who has access to your SAP environment — and should they?
The most common source of audit findings in SAP environments.
Poorly designed roles, accumulated privileges, and undetected segregation of duties conflicts create exposures that standard security tools never see. Corsentrix designs clean role structures, enforces least-privilege access, and builds authorization governance that holds up under scrutiny.
02 — ERP Vulnerability & Threat Management
Critical SAP vulnerabilities are being exploited within hours of disclosure.
Most mid-market organizations lack the tooling to respond fast enough.
Most mid-market organizations lack the specialized tooling to scan their SAP landscape for exposures or the workflows to act on them without disrupting operations. Corsentrix delivers continuous vulnerability scanning, patch prioritization, and remediation guidance purpose-built for SAP.
03 — Multi-ERP Access Governance
Your risk doesn't stop at SAP. Neither does ours.
Oracle, NetSuite, Workday, and Dynamics — same gaps, less visibility.
Oracle, NetSuite, Workday, and Dynamics carry the same SoD and access governance challenges as SAP — often with even less visibility. Corsentrix delivers unified conflict detection and access governance across your entire ERP landscape from a single, audit-ready view.
04 — SAP License & Identity Discovery
Before you can govern access, you need to know who actually has it.
Years of accumulated access create both financial waste and security exposure.
Years of accumulated user accounts, miscategorized licenses, and dormant access create both financial waste and security exposure. Corsentrix maps your SAP user landscape — identifying risk, optimizing license spend, and establishing the baseline every governance engagement starts from.
05 — Business Application Governance
SAP isn't the only critical application that needs governing.
NetSuite and Salesforce — sensitive data, underprotected access.
NetSuite and Salesforce hold sensitive operational and commercial data — yet access governance in these platforms is routinely an afterthought. Corsentrix extends the same governance rigor beyond ERP to the cloud business applications your organization actually runs on.
06 — Identity Governance & Administration
The right access, for the right people, at the right time.
Manual joiner-mover-leaver processes are a persistent audit finding.
Manual joiner-mover-leaver processes are slow, error-prone, and a persistent audit finding. Corsentrix implements identity governance programs that automate access lifecycle management and deliver audit-ready evidence across your entire application landscape.

What We Do

SAP security advisory, end to end.

Most organizations running SAP rely on the same firm that implemented their environment to keep it secure. That is a conflict of interest — and it leaves real gaps that auditors, threat actors, and regulators are finding. Corsentrix brings independent eyes to the systems your business runs on.

Corsentrix consultants collaborating in a modern office
Corsentrix Services
Independent advisory and managed services — delivered across the full ERP security lifecycle, from initial assessment to ongoing governance.
01
ERP Vulnerability Assessment
A complete audit of your SAP environment — exposed components, unpatched vulnerabilities, misconfigured RFC connections, authorization design gaps, and compliance exposure. You receive a prioritized risk register with remediation guidance, not just a scan report.
02
Continuous Threat Monitoring
Real-time SAP-native detection — privilege escalation, unauthorized user creation, anomalous RFC activity, and transaction fraud inside the application. Alerts feed directly into your existing SOC or SIEM in language your team can act on.
03
Segregation of Duties & GRC
SoD conflict detection, role design remediation, and compliance reporting for SOX and regulatory requirements. We eliminate the access combinations that enable fraud — documented in a form your auditors will accept.
04
SAP Security Architecture
Security-by-design for organizations modernizing to S/4HANA or RISE with SAP. We design the access model, monitoring framework, and integration security from the ground up — before the risks are baked in.
05
Continuous, expert-led oversight of your SAP security posture after the project ends — ongoing threat and vulnerability review, prioritized remediation guidance, and executive reporting, coordinated with your existing SAP team, SOC, or MSSP.

ERP Security Assurance Program

Continuous oversight for the system your business runs on.

An assessment tells you where risk exists today. It doesn't stay current tomorrow. The Corsentrix ERP Security Assurance Program keeps your SAP environment under continuous, expert-led oversight after the project ends — so risk gets managed down instead of quietly building back up.

Why It Matters
01
Ownership gets diffused after go-live
Between the SAP team, security, and audit, ERP findings often don't have one clear, ongoing owner — so review and follow-through can lose momentum over time.
02
SAP logs are a blind spot by design
SAP's logs are proprietary and application-specific — built differently from the network and endpoint data most SOC tooling reads. Even strong SOC teams need SAP-specific context to interpret them.
03
Risk quietly regresses
Without a recurring review cadence, findings age, patches get delayed, and access drifts — until the next audit or incident surfaces it the hard way.

Who We Serve

Built for mid-market ERP operators.

Organizations running SAP as mission-critical infrastructure — without dedicated ERP security expertise on staff.

Industrial plant operations
01 — Manufacturing
Industrial & Manufacturing
SAP is the operational backbone — finance, supply chain, procurement, production planning. A breach stops everything. Nation-state actors specifically target manufacturing IP and supply chain data.
Port and shipping logistics
02 — Distribution
Distribution & Logistics
High transaction volumes, complex vendor ecosystems, and thin margins make payment fraud and unauthorized access especially damaging. SAP authorization controls are rarely audited after go-live.
Business advisory meeting
03 — Services
Professional Services
Client data, project financials, and partner agreements running through SAP. SOX and regulatory requirements demand demonstrable controls — most firms cannot produce them on demand.
About Corsentrix

Independent. Specialized. Built for this.

Corsentrix was founded on a straightforward observation: the firms organizations trust to implement their ERP systems are rarely positioned to independently validate whether those systems are secure. The result is a governance gap that grows quietly — until an audit finding, a breach, or a compliance failure makes it impossible to ignore.

Corsentrix was built to fill that gap. We are a specialized security advisory firm focused exclusively on business-critical applications — SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Workday, and the other ERP and enterprise platforms organizations depend on to run their operations, close their books, and serve their customers.

Our practice covers the full security lifecycle: access governance and role design, vulnerability assessment and patch management, identity governance, segregation of duties, GRC and compliance readiness, and ongoing monitoring. We work with best-in-class technology partners — selected for fit, not familiarity — and we bring the same rigor to every engagement regardless of size.

If your SAP or ERP environment has never been independently assessed — it should be.

"Only 34% of organizations running SAP conduct regular monitoring and auditing of their environment."
