Symptom
You are trying to enable the option “Security Scan of User Inputs” or "Sanitise All Rich Text Inputs" in Application Security Feature Settings. When enabling either, a popup is displayed:
"Are you sure you want to disable the setting? We highly recommend that you keep it enabled to protect your system."
The text in the popup is misleading when the customer has both settings disabled from earlier and is trying to enable one of them. As an end user/admin, they are enabling one of the settings in this scenario, but the popup text is telling them that they are disabling something.
"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."
