CVE-2026-33915
CWE-862Published: March 26, 2026· Updated: Mar 26, 2026
Official Description
OpenEMR is a free and open source electronic health records and medical practice management application. Prior to version 8.0.0.3, five insurance company REST API routes are missing the `RestConfig::request_authorization_check()` call that every other data-modifying route in the standard API uses. This allows any authenticated API user to create and modify insurance company records even if their OpenEMR user account does not have administrative ACL permissions. Version 8.0.0.3 patches the issue.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-33915 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
