CVE-2026-124464

MediumCVSS 6.5
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

OpenEMR before 8.4.0 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows patient-scoped SMART tokens to read other patients' questionnaire responses because FhirQuestionnaireResponseService does not implement IPatientCompartmentResourceService. Attackers holding a patient/QuestionnaireResponse.rs token can request responses by uuid or list the unfiltered bundle to obtain cross-patient clinical assessment answers.

Risk Assessment

Confidentiality breach of patient clinical data — potential leak of other patients' medical questionnaire responses, violating privacy and data protection regulations (e.g., HIPAA/GDPR).

Recommendation

Upgrade OpenEMR to version 8.4.0 or later. Until patched, restrict issuance of patient/QuestionnaireResponse.rs SMART tokens and monitor for unusual requests to FHIR QuestionnaireResponse endpoints.
