In Progress OpenEdge OEM (OpenEdge Management) and OEE (OpenEdge Explorer) before 12.7, a remote user (who has any OEM or OEE role) could perform a URL injection attack to change identity or role membership, e.g., escalate to admin. This affects OpenEdge LTS before 11.7.16, 12.x before 12.2.12, and 12.3.x through 12.6.x before 12.7.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
