This pull request addresses a critical vulnerability identified in the payment processing module of the OpenEMR application. Specifically, the vulnerability allowed client-side bypassing of input validation for the reference number during payment submissions.
Fixes #7351
Short description of what this resolves:
This pull request resolves a security vulnerability in the OpenEMR application where the reference number for payment entries could be bypassed using client-side manipulation. The absence of strict server-side validation for the reference number allowed entries without valid references, compromising the integrity of payment data and violating ASVS V5.1.4 requirements.
