Summary
It was possible to perform Remote Command Execution (RCE) via Java RMI interface in the OpenEdge AdminServer, allowing authenticated users to inject and execute OS commands under the delegated authority of the AdminServer process. An RMI interface permitted manipulation of a configuration property with inadequate input validation leading to OS command injection.
