Chamilo is a learning management system. Chamillo is affected by a post-authentication phar unserialize which leads to a remote code execution (RCE) within versions 1.11.12 to 1.11.26. By abusing multiple supported features from the virtualization plugin vchamilo, the vulnerability allows an administrator to execute arbitrary code on the server. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.26.
The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/502.html →Open in CWE collection →An adversary attempts to exploit an application by injecting additional, malicious content during its processing of serialized objects. Developers leverage serialization in order to convert data or state into a static, binary format for saving to disk or transferring over a network. These objects are then deserialized when needed to recover the data/state. By injecting a malformed object into a vulnerable application, an adversary can potentially compromise the application by manipulating the deserialization process. This can result in a number of unwanted outcomes, including remote code execution.
