Summary

SAP HANA Extend Application Services (XS) is susceptible to a vulnerability whereby transmission encryption is absent during form-based authentication.

Without secure transmission, sensitive data exchanged between users and the application is at risk, potentially leading to unauthorized access and data breaches. Proper implementation of encryption protocols is crucial to safeguard against such vulnerabilities.
