Aisle, an AI-driven application security firm, ran its analyzer over OpenEMR's source code and found 38 previously unknown vulnerabilities, including two with maximum severity (CVSS 10.0). OpenEMR is the open-source electronic health records system used by 100,000 healthcare providers serving 200 million patients. The two critical bugs let attackers reach into patient databases without logging in: CVE-2026-24898 lets any unauthenticated visitor receive the medical practice's API tokens by sending a single POST request, and CVE-2026-24908 is a SQL injection in the patient REST API. OpenEMR has now patched all 38.
Microsoft Threat Intelligence published a detailed report on Storm-1175, a China-based financially motivated group that deploys Medusa ransomware at extreme speed - sometimes moving from initial access to full ransomware deployment within 24 hours. The group exploits internet-facing systems using a mix of zero-day and recently disclosed (n-day) vulnerabilities, having weaponized over 16 flaws across 10 products since 2023. Two vulnerabilities were exploited as zero-days a full week before public disclosure. Recent targets include healthcare, education, finance, and professional services organizations in the US, UK, and Australia. Their playbook: exploit a web-facing flaw, create persistence via new accounts and web shells, steal credentials with Mimikatz, disable Defender via registry modifications, exfiltrate data with Rclone, then deploy Medusa across the network.
Healthcare software company CareCloud disclosed to the SEC that hackers breached one of its six electronic health record environments on March 16, gaining access to patient medical data for approximately eight hours. The company serves over 40,000 healthcare providers. It's still investigating whether data was exfiltrated, but classified the incident as material on March 24 due to the sensitivity of the records. No ransomware group has claimed the attack.
