Unfortunately your advisory is once again, fake. The variable you are
referring to is set in interface/globals.php which is of course included
before the mentioned include statement.

Hmm, it isn't fake - i was able to exploit this bug.
This software (i mean openemr) i so badly written that i have been able
to find few other bugs,  like:
"""
Argh, you're right. The problematic code is here:

interface/globals.php:

...
// required for normal operation because of recent changes in PHP:
$ps = strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],"myadmin");
if ($ps === false) {
        extract($_GET);
        extract($_POST);
}

// turn off PHP compatibility warnings
ini_set("session.bug_compat_warn","off");
?>

In other words: Turn off all those pesky security improvements, so that we may grasp defeat from the jaws of victory. Obviously the number of people that are running with the retarded allow_url_fopen setting on should be low but looking at the quality of this software I don't think finding vulnerabilities that can be exploited in real-life installations should be hard.
