CVE-2026-124473

HighCVSS 7.1
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

OpenEMR before 8.3.0 contains a broken object-level authorization vulnerability in the SOAP note update API, which does not verify that the supplied SOAP note ID (sid) belongs to the supplied patient and encounter. Authenticated users with encounters/notes permission can send PUT requests to /api/patient/:pid/encounter/:eid/soap_note/:sid with another patient's sid to overwrite that clinical note and reassign its pid.

Risk Assessment

Overwriting other patients' clinical notes and reassigning them is possible, leading to corruption of medical documentation and potential treatment errors.

Recommendation

Update OpenEMR to version 8.3.0 or later. Audit SOAP notes and verify clinical data integrity.
