Description
OpenEMR before 8.5.0 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in authorizations_full.php that allows any authenticated staff user to authorize arbitrary patients' clinical records. Attackers can send a mode=authorize request with an attacker-chosen pid and their own CSRF token to set authorized=1 on billing, forms, pnotes, and transactions records, bypassing provider review.
