OpenEMR Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Flaws

OpenEMR versions prior to 8.0.0.1 contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the ajax graphs library that allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary database queries, potentially leading to complete compromise of patient health records and system data. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input validation and requires valid credentials to exploit, but poses a critical risk given the sensitive nature of healthcare data stored in OpenEMR systems. No patch is currently available for affected versions.

Stored DOM-based cross-site scripting (XSS) in OpenEMR prior to version 8.0.0.1 allows authenticated attackers with low privileges to inject malicious scripts through unsanitized patient names in the portal signing component, which are rendered client-side via jQuery. Successful exploitation requires user interaction and could enable attackers to perform actions in the context of affected users or steal sensitive health information. A patch is available in OpenEMR 8.0.0.1 and later versions.

OpenEMR versions prior to 8.0.0.1 fail to properly enforce access controls on group encounters due to sensitivity checks only querying the wrong database table, allowing authenticated users to view restricted medical records such as mental health encounters they should not access. The vulnerability affects multi-user deployments where role-based restrictions are relied upon to protect sensitive patient information. No patch is currently available for affected versions.

OpenEMR versions prior to 8.0.0.1 contain an inverted boolean condition in the access control logic that allows any authenticated user to access administrative CDR controllers (alerts, ajax, edit, add, detail, browse) intended for administrators only. Affected users can suppress clinical decision support alerts, delete or modify clinical plans, and edit rule configurations without proper authorization. No patch is currently available for this high-severity vulnerability.

Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in OpenEMR prior to 8.0.0.1 allows administrators or users with code management privileges to inject malicious scripts into code descriptions that execute in the browsers of all users accessing the dynamic code picker. All OpenEMR instances running affected versions are at risk, as any authenticated admin can inject payloads affecting the entire user base. No patch is currently available for this vulnerability.

Stored XSS in OpenEMR's Pain Map form prior to version 8.0.0.1 allows authenticated users to inject malicious JavaScript into encounter records that executes when other clinicians view the affected form. Since session cookies lack HttpOnly protection, attackers can hijack sessions of other users including administrators. This vulnerability requires user interaction and network access but poses significant risk in multi-user healthcare environments.

Stored cross-site scripting in OpenEMR versions prior to 8.0.0.1 allows authenticated users with Track Anything feature access to inject malicious scripts into item names that execute in the browsers of all users viewing the corresponding Dygraph charts. An attacker with create or edit permissions can craft payloads that run in victims' sessions without their knowledge, potentially enabling session hijacking or unauthorized actions within the application. No patch is currently available for affected versions.

OpenEMR versions prior to 8.0.0.1 fail to properly enforce access controls on the Claim File Tracker AJAX endpoint, allowing authenticated users without billing permissions to retrieve sensitive claim metadata including claim IDs, payer information, and transmission logs. An authenticated attacker with minimal privileges can access confidential billing information that should be restricted to authorized billing staff. No patch is currently available for affected installations.
