Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-22973 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-2023-22973/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-22973/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-22973","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-22973/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-22973","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cxh8-623x-rhrw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenEMR","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can execute arbitrary code via a Local File Inclusion vulnerability in OpenEMR.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"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:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"A Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in interface/forms/LBF/new.php in OpenEMR \u003c 7.0.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute code via the formname parameter.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-22973","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"open-emr:openemr","products":["open-emr:openemr"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-22974"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-22972"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2023-02-22","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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-03-12","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote authenticated users can execute arbitrary code via a Local File Inclusion vulnerability in OpenEMR.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-22973/"}
