AI-suggested

A fix is available in OpenEMR version 8.3.0 and later. Users should upgrade to version 8.3.0 or newer to remediate this vulnerability. No vendor advisory or patch link was provided, but the version information clearly indicates the fix. Until upgrading, restrict document-note write permissions to trusted users only to reduce risk.

Description

OpenEMR versions prior to 8.3.0 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the file interface/forms/eye_mag/report.php. This flaw allows authenticated users with document-note write permissions to inject malicious JavaScript code into retina document notes. When clinicians generate the Eye Exam patient report, the injected script executes, potentially exposing session cookies. The vulnerability has a medium severity rating with a CVSS score of 5.4.
