OpenEMR before 8.5.0 contains a missing authorization flaw in the Care Coordination CCDA and CCR import controllers, which move a document named by the document_id parameter into the import category without checking access to the source document. Authenticated non-administrators with Care Coordination access can recategorize protected patient documents and then download them through normal ACL-checked retrieval.
