CVE-2026-126426: OpenEMR 5.0.2 before 8.5.0 Missing Re-Authentication for MFA Factor Deletion and U2F Registration

MediumCVSS 5.3 · v4.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: openemr openemr 8.5.0.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to openemr openemr 8.5.0 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org

OpenEMR 5.0.2 before 8.5.0 contains a missing authentication vulnerability in mfa_registrations.php and mfa_u2f.php that allows session hijackers to delete MFA factors or register U2F keys without password re-entry. Attackers holding a victim's authenticated session can remove all second factors or add their own U2F key, bypassing MFA at later logins with the password.
