MEDIUMepa4all-client: Unauthenticated REST API for Patient Record Writes
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Blast Radius
com.oviva.telematik:epa4all-rest-serviceReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
Any network-reachable caller can write arbitrary documents to any patient's electronic health record accessible by the institution's SMC-B card. In a misconfigured deployment (e.g., following the production Docker example in the README), this is exploitable from the local network without credentials.
Patches
Workarounds
Use network policies or proxies to enforce service-to-service authentication via e.g. mTLS.
- run the service in an isolated network namespace e.g. as Kubernetes sidecar
- service-mesh with corresponding policies

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for com.oviva.telematik:epa4all-rest-service. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Remediation status
No patched version of com.oviva.telematik:epa4all-rest-service has shipped for GHSA-c82x-f4xr-qv33 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-c82x-f4xr-qv33 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-c82x-f4xr-qv33. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-c82x-f4xr-qv33 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-c82x-f4xr-qv33 across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
