The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is warning of critical vulnerabilities affecting Philips Tasy electronic medical records (EMR) system that could be exploited by remote threat actors to extract sensitive patient data from patient databases.
“Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could result in patients’ confidential data being exposed or extracted from Tasy’s database, give unauthorized access, or create a denial-of-service condition,” CISA said in a medical bulletin issued on November 4.
