Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-15156 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Open-Emr Openemr. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15156/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15156/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-15156","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15156/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-15156","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-53p6-5gx5-42m7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"OpenEMR medical software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary OS commands in OpenEMR by modifying a global configuration variable and sending a crafted request.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openemr","vendor":"open-emr"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"OS command injection occurring in versions of OpenEMR before 5.0.1.4 allows a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands by making a crafted request to interface/fax/faxq.php after modifying the \"hylafax_server\" global variable in interface/super/edit_globals.php.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15156","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"open-emr:openemr","products":["open-emr:openemr"],"type":"command_injection","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15157"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15155"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-08-15","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"OpenEMR has an Unauthenticated MedEx Token Disclosure","id":"CVE-2026-24898","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"OpenEMR Arbitrary File Read Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-24849","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"OpenEMR has SQL Injection in Patient API Sort Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-24908","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Improper Restriction of Rendered UI Layers or Frames in openemr/openemr","id":"CVE-2022-2734","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-22611","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-37734","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-17197","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary OS commands in OpenEMR by modifying a global configuration variable and sending a crafted request.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15156/"}
