Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2021-25921 exists.\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-2021-25921/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25921/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-25921","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25921/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-25921","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vgg5-g88f-mq8p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenEMR medical software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Allergies section, potentially compromising admin accounts and modifying data in OpenEMR.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Mend","cpe":[{"product":"openemr","vendor":"open-emr"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"In OpenEMR, versions 2.7.3-rc1 to 6.0.0 are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) due to user input not being validated properly in the `Allergies` section.
