CVE-2017-16540
OpenEMR before 5.0.0 Patch 5 allows unauthenticated remote database copying because setup.php exposes functionality for cloning an existing OpenEMR site to an arbitrary attacker-controlled MySQL server via vectors involving a crafted state parameter.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
