Description
OpenEMR before 8.5.0 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in SLEOB::slInvoiceNumber() in src/Billing/SLEOB.php, which concatenates the CLP01 claim identifier from uploaded X12 835 ERA files into a query without escaping or parameter binding. Authenticated users with billing permissions, or a malicious payer whose ERA file a clerk uploads, can execute arbitrary SQL to read any table, including users_secure password hashes, and modify data.
