CVE-2025-29772Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated script execution via unescaped subcategory input

Published Mar 31, 2025 · Updated Mar 31, 2025

Reflected XSS in CAMOS new.php in OpenEMR before 7.0.3 allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts via hidden_subcategory. The page embeds the POST value in a JavaScript select_word call after applying fixquotes, which does not escape it for JavaScript syntax. A low-privileged account must submit the crafted value and induce another user to interact with the reflected page; execution can read or alter data available to that browser session.
