Description
OpenEMR versions prior to 8.5.0 contain a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the ACL module. This flaw allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious JavaScript via the module_id parameter in specific ACL-related URLs. Exploitation can lead to theft of non-HttpOnly session cookies and unauthorized modification of ACL configurations. The vulnerability is fixed in version 8.5.0.
