This module attempts to brute force SAP username and passwords through the SAP Web GUI service. Default clients can be tested without needing to set a CLIENT. Common and default user/password combinations can be tested just setting the DEFAULT_CRED variable to true. The MSF_DATA_DIRECTORY/wordlists/sap_default.txt path store stores these default combinations.

Module Ranking and Traits

Module Ranking:

normal: The exploit is otherwise reliable, but depends on a specific version and can't (or doesn't) reliably autodetect. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage

This module is a scanner module, and is capable of testing against multiple hosts.

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/sap/sap_web_gui_brute_login
msf auxiliary(sap_web_gui_brute_login) > show options
    ... show and set options ...
msf auxiliary(sap_web_gui_brute_login) > set RHOSTS ip-range
msf auxiliary(sap_web_gui_brute_login) > exploit

Other examples of setting the RHOSTS option:

Example 1:

msf auxiliary(sap_web_gui_brute_login) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.3-192.168.1.200

Example 2:

msf auxiliary(sap_web_gui_brute_login) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.1/24

Example 3:

msf auxiliary(sap_web_gui_brute_login) > set RHOSTS file:/tmp/ip_list.txt

Required Options

RHOSTS: The target host(s), range CIDR identifier, or hosts file with syntax 'file:<path>'
