FAUCET Score

CVE-2020-5728 describes a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in OpenMRS versions 2.9 and earlier. The flaw occurs because the application copies the "Referrer" header value into an HTML element without sufficient validation, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts. This medium-severity vulnerability (CVSS 6.1) can be exploited remotely with low attack complexity, potentially leading to information disclosure and integrity compromise for affected users. While the vulnerability has a low EPSS score and a FAUCET Risk Score of 32/100, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion.
