  "summary" : "General OpenMRS Security Advisory, January 2025: Penetration Testing Results and Patches",
  "details" : "### Impact\nWe recently underwent Penetration Testing of OpenMRS by a third-party company. **Vulnerabilities were found, and fixes have been made and released.** We've released security updates that include critical fixes, and so, we strongly recommend upgrading affected modules.\n\n**This notice applies to _all_ OpenMRS instances.** The testers used the OpenMRS v3 Reference Application (O3 RefApp); however, their findings highlighted modules commonly used in older OpenMRS applications, including the O2 RefApp. \n\n## Vulnerability Details\n- The issues uncovered included broken access control (e.g. inappropriate admin access), phishing vulnerability, and stored XSS (e.g. vulnerable passwords).\n- No vulnerabilities were found in the O3 frontend esm modules. \n- The Letter of Attestation from the penetration test is [available here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sBm4-FzLA8hSoM9wYknBfgEttBHyLvoU/view?usp=sharing) for your reference. \n- After the fixes were applied, the OpenMRS O3 RefApp met a Security Level of “Excellent, Grade A”.\n- The full detailed Remediation Pentest Report is available to Implementation Technical Leads upon request.\n\n### Patches\n**Minimum Requirements for Implementers:** We **strongly** recommend upgrading your modules to the following versions (or greater) as soon as possible. **This is the minimum amount to do and be protected from the vulnerabilities found and fixed.** The following versions contain the patch: \n\n- **Platform** 2.6.11+ \n  - How: Increase your platform version number wherever this is specified in your implementation. If you use the OpenMRS SDK, this will be in the distro.properties file.\n  - Notes: \n    - The newly released [**Platform 2.7**](https://sourceforge.net/projects/openmrs/files/releases/OpenMRS_Platform_2.7.0/) also includes the fixes. [Release Notes and more download options here](https://openmrs.atlassian.net/wiki/x/XoBzEQ).\n    - Platform 2.6.8+ has most of the fixes, but these are broken if you don't use SSL, so Platform 2.6.11 or higher is preferred.\n    - For those still on Platform 2.5+ such as the Bahmni ecosystem, the new [2.5.14](https://ci.openmrs.org/browse/TRUNK-CORE2-232) release includes the patch. _Bahmni note: The upcoming patch release for both Bahmni Lite and Bahmni Standard will incorporate these security fixes._\n- **Legacy UI** OMOD 1.21.0+ ([here](https://addons.openmrs.org/show/org.openmrs.module.legacyui))\n- **ID Gen** OMOD 4.14.0+ ([here](https://addons.openmrs.org/show/org.openmrs.module.idgen))\n- **Address Hierarchy** OMOD 2.19.0+ ([here](https://addons.openmrs.org/show/org.openmrs.module.addresshierarchy))\n- **Attachments** OMOD 3.6.0+ ([here](https://addons.openmrs.org/show/org.openmrs.module.attachments))\n- **Patient Flags** OMOD 3.0.8+ ([here](https://addons.openmrs.org/show/org.openmrs.module.patientflags))\n\n### Workarounds\nThere are no practical workarounds to fix or remediate the vulnerabilities without upgrading. Technically, you could remove the affected OMODs, but this would badly degrade the system's functionality.\n\n## Thank you to our amazing Security contributors!\nThank you to security firm UnderDefense, and to the OpenMRS Security Group contributors for their patch support - specific thanks to Daniel Kayiwa, Samuel Lubwama, Ian Bacher, Rafal Korytkowski, and Michael Seaton. \n",
