SAP Concur incident
Expense, Travel, Invoice, Request, Imaging, Analysis/Intelligence: P1
Resolved after 1 day 5 hours, affecting Analysis/Intelligence and Expense and 1 more, on March 16, 2026.
Impact as Reported: In the Concur Public Sector and Government environment user might have experienced intermittent degradation and disruption across multiple services. Root cause: The root cause of the incident has been identified in a previously undetected incompatibility between the Linux kernel version in use in the environment and the version of a security agent deployed on the hosts. The defect resulted in unpredictable and random kernel level issues causing connectivity loss, containers restarts, and other seemingly disconnection problems impacting user experience. After the agent role in the issue was identified and having engaged with its vendor, a newer version of the agent was deployed to stably restore service. Corrective Actions: The following corrective and preventive actions have been identified. - A known good version of the security agent has been rolled out to the impacted environment. - Testing and validation processes for the impacting agent are being revised to provide better detection of potential compatibility issues. - The rollout process of new agents is being revised to provide more granular control and mitigate the impact of possible escaped defects.
