Hazard

Is CVE-2022-22536 being exploited?

Weaponised and widely attempted

Reliable public exploit code exists, or mass exploitation attempts are probable. Patch inside days, not weeks.

SAP Multiple Products HTTP Request Smuggling Vulnerability

SAP · Multiple Products

CVSS 10 EPSS 98% 1 public exploit Fix deadline passed 8 September 2022

What it is

SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP, SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java, ABAP Platform, SAP Content Server and SAP Web Dispatcher allow HTTP request smuggling. An unauthenticated attacker can prepend a victim's request with arbitrary data, allowing for function execution impersonating the victim or poisoning intermediary Web caches.

Why we say that

  • EPSS puts exploitation in the next 30 days at 98%
  • 1 public exploit published
  • CISA's federal remediation deadline (2022-09-08) has passed
  • CVSS 10 critical
  • Listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue

Every line above comes from a named public source. Where the evidence is thin, we say so rather than inventing confidence — see methodology.

What to do

Apply updates per vendor instructions.

Public exploit code

Indexed from Exploit-DB. Presence of code raises urgency; absence does not mean safety.

What it costs when this goes wrong

This is where UK enforcement meets the vulnerability record. Where an unfixed vulnerability leads to a breach, the ICO treats it as a security failure under UK GDPR. Recent cases:
