GHSA-VV7X-7W4M-Q72F
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-09-21 20:36 – Updated: 2022-09-27 06:12Impact
This issue allows a client of the API to retrieve more information than the client’s OAuth scope permits when making “search-type” requests. This issue would not allow a client to retrieve information about individuals other than those the client was already authorized to access.
Patches
We recommend that users of fhir-works-on-aws-authz-smart 3.1.1 or 3.1.2 upgrade to version 3.1.3 or higher immediately. Versions 3.1.0 and below are unaffected.
Workarounds
There is no workaround for this issue. Please upgrade fhir-works-on-aws-authz-smart to version 3.1.3 or higher.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-02-28 23:19 – Updated: 2024-11-18 23:09Impact
Assigning existing users to a different organization is currently possible. It may lead to unintended access: if a user from organization A is accidentally assigned to organization B, they will retain their permissions and therefore might be able to access stuff they should not be allowed to access.
