When enabling new SAP S/4HANA features this month, you must avoid specific change-freeze windows to ensure system stability and business continuity. The primary periods to avoid include your organization's quarterly financial close, planned IT maintenance, and the official SAP release window for the 2510 Feature Package Stack (FPS).

Key strategies for scheduling transports safely

• Establish a release calendar and blackout periods
• Implement robust change management and approval workflows
• Analyze transport dependencies before import
• Bundle related transports for simultaneous import
• Restrict and monitor production access
• Coordinate with business stakeholders

Exploitation attempts related to the September 2025 SAP security notes on S/4HANA can be detected by a SOC using a combination of SAP native logs and security tools integrated with a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system. The most critical vulnerability from the September 2025 notes, CVE-2025-42957, involves arbitrary ABAP code injection, which allows a low-privileged user to gain full system control.

Validating custom code after kernel and ICM patches in SAP S/4HANA is primarily a quality assurance task, rather than an automatic process triggered by tools. The impact on ABAP custom code from these technical components is usually minimal, especially for ICM patches, but careful testing is still necessary. You can validate compatibility by following a structured testing and analysis process.

To apply September 2025 SAP Security Notes to SAP S/4HANA with minimal downtime, follow SAP's official procedures by accessing the SAP Support Portal, identifying critical notes, and using the Software Update Manager (SUM) with the Zero Downtime Option (ZDO).
