Description
OpenEMR before 8.5.0 contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows any authenticated low-privilege user to access reports, dated reminders, and batch reminder endpoints lacking AclMain::aclCheckCore() checks. Attackers can request patient_list.php, amc_full_report.php, dated_reminders_add.php, or batch_reminders.php directly to export patient PHI, send unauthorized reminders, and trigger batch reminder processing.
