CVE-2026-33618 Details
Description
Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to .0.0-RC.3, the PlatformConfigurationController::decodeSettingArray() method uses PHP's eval() to parse platform settings from the database. An attacker with admin access (obtainable via Advisory 1) can inject arbitrary PHP code into the settings, which is then executed when any user (including unauthenticated) requests /platform-config/list. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.0.0-RC.3.
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Chamilo LMS versions greater than 1.11.* and up to 2.0-RC.2. The issue arises in the PlatformConfigurationController::decodeSettingArray() method, which improperly uses PHP's eval() function to process platform settings from the database. An attacker with admin access can inject arbitrary PHP code into the settings. This injected code is executed when any user, including unauthenticated users, accesses the /platform-config/list route, which does not require authentication. The vulnerability allows for full server compromise, as the executed code runs with the same privileges as the web server user.
Users can upgrade to Chamilo LMS version 2.0.0-RC.3 to address this vulnerability.
