Summary
OpenEMR before 8.3.0 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in the Standard REST API patient insurance and employer search, which concatenates query-string parameter names into SQL as column identifiers without escaping. Authenticated clients, including low-privilege patient-portal OAuth2 tokens, can send crafted parameter names to /api/patient/{puuid}/insurance or /api/patient/{puuid}/employer to extract patient PHI, user records, and API client secrets.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
The maintainers of openemr/openemr published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
