## Vulnerability Details
The CTCWebService SOAP endpoint doesn't require user authentication in
order to interact with it. The functionality exposed by this Web Service
allows users to perform several administration tasks. As no authentication
is required, any malicious actor with HTTP access to the service, could
abuse these functionalities in order to fully compromise the targeted
system.
Some examples of what could be achieved:
- Admin user creation.
- Arbitrary assignment of authorizations to a user.
- Information disclosure.
## Solution
SAP has released SAP Note 2934135 which provide patched versions of the
affected components.
