Description

OpenEMR before 8.5.0 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in portal/import_template.php, where several portal document template modes lack admin/forms ACL and CSRF checks. Any authenticated staff user can send mode=save_profiles to delete all template profile assignments, use other unguarded modes to push templates to patients or change categories, and read template bodies via mode=get or getPdf.
