Impact
A flaw in the dated reminders log of OpenEMR allows an authenticated user without administrative privileges to access reminder data belonging to other users. By crafting a query that includes arbitrary user identifiers in the sentTo[] or sentBy[] parameters, a user can retrieve patient names, free‑text messages, and other sensitive information. This constitutes a confidentiality breach and exposes private health data.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects OpenEMR versions earlier than 8.0.0.2. Users running these versions on any platform are susceptible; the fix is available in OpenEMR 8.0.0.2 and later releases.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS v3 score of 6.5 reflects medium severity, while the EPSS score indicates an exploitation probability below 1%. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Exploitation requires remote access to the web interface and authentication of a non‑admin account; no special privileges beyond normal user access are needed to construct the malicious GET request.
