Summary
SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Web Intelligence) allows a low-privileged attacker to upload a specially crafted spreadsheet file containing malicious external references. When the file is processed as a data source, the affected component resolves these references and exposes the contents of sensitive server-side files within the resulting report. This results in a high impact on confidentiality, with no impact on integrity and availability.
