Summary
In OpenEMR, versions 5.0.2 to 6.0.0 are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) due to user input not being validated properly and rendered in the U2F USB Device authentication method page. A highly privileged attacker could inject arbitrary code into input fields when creating a new user.
