OpenEMR before 8.5.0 Improper Authorization in Lab Order Transmission via list_reports.php
OpenEMR before 8.5.0 contains an improper authorization vulnerability in interface/orders/list_reports.php that allows read-only users to transmit lab orders because the patients/med check ignores write permission.
