CVE-2014-5462

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions OpenEMR versions 4.1.2 (Patch 7) and earlier

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands. This is achieved through various parameters in different API endpoints, including layout id to "interface/super/edit layout.php", form patient id, form drug name, or form lot number to "interface/reports/prescriptions report.php", payment id to "interface/billing/edit payment.php", id to "interface/forms admin/forms admin.php", form pid or form encounter to "interface/billing/sl eob search.php", sortby to "interface/logview/logview.php", and several others across different endpoints.

Recommendations For OpenEMR version 4.1.2 (Patch 7) and earlier, consider updating to a newer version that includes a fix for this issue. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the vulnerable parameters and endpoints, such as layout id, form patient id, form drug name, form lot number, payment id, id, form pid, form encounter, and sortby, until a patch is available. Avoid using the vulnerable parameters in the affected API endpoints until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
