Dell E-Lab Navigator, [3.1.9, 3.2.0], contains an Insecure Direct Object Reference Vulnerability in Feedback submission. An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, to manipulate the emails appearance, potentially deceiving recipients and causing reputational and security risks.

Weakness

For example, if the UI is used to monitor the security state of a system or network, then omitting or obscuring an important indicator could prevent the user from detecting and reacting to a security-critical event. UI misrepresentation can take many forms:
