Official Description
Lack of input sanitization in BMC Control-M branches 9.0.20 and 9.0.21 allows logged-in users for manipulation of generated web pages via injection of HTML code. This might lead to a successful phishing attack for example by tricking users into using a hyperlink pointing to a website controlled by an attacker.

Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-1606 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
