CVE-2023-40275Network attack vector

Patient-list disclosure via unauthenticated search endpoint

Published Mar 19, 2024 · Updated Apr 10, 2025

Information exposure in OpenClinic GA 5.247.01 allows remote attackers to retrieve patient lists through an unauthenticated JSP request. The _common/search/searchByAjax/patientslistShow.jsp endpoint processes a blank findFirstname parameter and returns matching patient records without requiring an authenticated session. Network access to the web application is sufficient, and the disclosed data is limited to patient records returned by the query.
