Description
The SAP Cloud SDK for Python contains an improper cryptographic signature verification vulnerability (CWE-347) in IASContextProvider, the runtime-context provider registered by default via bootstrap(app).IASContextProvider extracted the app_tid, sap_gtid and user_uuid claims from the IAS JWT in the Authorization header using an unverified decoder and wrote them into the request-scoped RuntimeContext without validating the token signature. A remote caller could submit a self-signed JWT naming a victim tenant/user; the forged identity then propagated to every consumer of the runtime context:OTel span attributes (sap.tenancy.tenant_id, user.id) via RuntimeContextSpanProcessorlog records via IdentityLogFilteraudit events (tenant_id, user_initiator_id) via AuditClienttenant routing via CBCClientThis completes an earlier remediation that fixed the same unverified pattern in StarletteIASTelemetryMiddleware but did not cover IASContextProvider.
