Why these products were recalled

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has identified in the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) that NexGen Healthcare Mirth Connect, prior to version 4.4.1, has a potential vulnerability allowing the deserialization of untrusted data (CVE-2023-43208). Mirth products may have been installed and configured with your ViewPoint / ViewPoint 6 system by GE HealthCare. This vulnerability could allow a malicious actor to access the system and potentially manipulate patient data.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
