Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
OpenEMR is a free and open source electronic health records and medical practice management application. Prior to 8.0.0.2, DOM-based stored XSS in the jQuery SearchHighlight plugin (library/js/SearchHighlight.js) allows an authenticated user with encounter form write access to inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in another clinician's browser session when they use the search/find feature on the Custom Report page. The plugin reverses server-side HTML entity encoding by reading decoded text from DOM text nodes, concatenating it into a raw HTML string, and passing it to jQuery's $() constructor for HTML parsing. Version 8.0.0.2 fixes the issue.
AnalysisAI
DOM-based stored XSS in OpenEMR's SearchHighlight plugin (versions prior to 8.0.0.2) enables authenticated users with encounter form write access to inject malicious JavaScript that executes in other clinicians' browsers during report searches. An attacker can leverage this to steal session tokens, modify patient data, or perform actions on behalf of targeted medical staff. The vulnerability stems from improper handling of HTML entity decoding when parsing search results.
Technical ContextAI
Cross-site scripting (XSS) allows injection of client-side scripts into web pages viewed by other users due to insufficient output encoding.
RemediationAI
Encode all user-supplied output contextually (HTML, JS, URL). Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers. Use HTTPOnly and Secure cookie flags.
