CVE-2025-31332
Sap Businessobjects Business Intelligence Platform 430
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:HCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2025-31332 is a medium-severity Insecure Inherited Permissions (CWE-277) vulnerability in Sap Businessobjects Business Intelligence Platform. Its CVSS base score is 6.6 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Path Interception (T1034); ranked at the 4th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-6 (Least Privilege) and AC-3 (Access Enforcement) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Least privilege requires that only the minimal necessary permissions are granted, which structurally prevents the definition and inheritance of overly broad permissions.
Access enforcement directly stops insecure inherited permissions from being applied to new objects by requiring all access decisions to follow approved authorizations.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Directly addresses defining and enforcing secure access permissions and least privilege, which prevents insecure inheritance.
Configuration management practices include establishing secure permission baselines that avoid insecure inheritance.
Secure SDLC practices would catch and prevent defining insecure inherited permissions during development.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing may detect permission issues but does not prevent insecure inheritance by design.
Privileged access rights management can limit inheritance of excessive permissions but does not directly address insecure default permission inheritance.
Secure development lifecycle practices can include permission model reviews but do not guarantee secure inherited permissions.
Secure system architecture principles can incorporate least-privilege permission models but do not specifically mandate secure inheritance.
Secure coding standards can explicitly require setting restrictive permissions at object creation, directly mitigating insecure inheritance.
Information access restriction policies can reduce risk from inherited permissions but do not enforce secure permission inheritance at creation time.
