Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to 1.11.38, any authenticated user (including students) can write arbitrary content to files on the server via the BigUpload endpoint. The key parameter controls the filename and the raw POST body becomes the file content. While .php extensions are filtered to .phps, the .pht extension passes through unmodified. On Apache configurations where .pht is handled as PHP, this leads to Remote Code Execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.11.38.
Chamilo is a learning management system. Prior to version 1.11.34, Chamilo LMS is affected by an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability caused by improper validation of uploaded files. The application relies solely on MIME-type verification when handling file uploads and does not adequately validate file extensions or enforce safe server-side storage restrictions. As a result, an authenticated low-privileged user can upload a crafted file containing executable code and subsequently execute arbitrary commands on the server. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.34.
Unrestricted file upload in `/main/inc/ajax/work.ajax.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.24 allows authenticated attackers with learner role to obtain remote code execution via uploading of PHP files.
Chamilo 1.11.16 is affected by an authenticated local file inclusion vulnerability which allows authenticated users with access to 'big file uploads' to copy/move files from anywhere in the file system into the web directory.

Unrestricted file upload in `/main/inc/ajax/exercise.ajax.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.24 allows authenticated attackers with learner role to obtain remote code execution via uploading of PHP files.
Unrestricted file upload in `/main/inc/ajax/document.ajax.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.24 allows authenticated attackers with learner role to obtain remote code execution via uploading of PHP files.
Chamilo LMS is an open-source learning management system. In versions prior to 2.0.0-RC.3, an insecure direct object modification vulnerability in the PUT /api/users/{id} endpoint allows any authenticated user with ROLE_STUDENT to escalate their privileges to ROLE_ADMIN by modifying the roles field on their own user record. The API Platform security expression is_granted('EDIT', object) only verifies record ownership, and the roles field is included in the writable serialization group, enabling any user to set arbitrary roles such as ROLE_ADMIN. Successful exploitation grants full administrative control of the platform, including access to all courses, user data, grades, and administrative settings. This issue has been fixed in version 2.0.0-RC.3.
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.
Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to 1.11.38 and 2.0.0-RC.3, Chamilo LMS contains an OS Command Injection vulnerability in the file move function. The move() function in fileManage.lib.php passes user-controlled path values directly into exec() shell commands without using escapeshellarg(). When a user moves a document via document.php, the move_to POST parameter — which only passes through Security::remove_XSS() (an HTML-only filter) — is concatenated directly into shell commands such as exec("mv $source $target"). By default, Chamilo allows all authenticated users to create courses (allow_users_to_create_courses = true). Any user who is a teacher in a course (including self-created courses) can move documents, making this vulnerability exploitable by any authenticated user. The attacker must first place a directory with shell metacharacters in its name on the filesystem (achievable via Course Backup Import), then move a document into that directory to trigger arbitrary command execution as the web server user (www-data). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.11.38 and 2.0.0-RC.3.
Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to version 1.11.36, an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the H5P Import feature allows authenticated users with Teacher role to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE). The H5P package validation only checks if h5p.json exists but doesn't block .htaccess or PHP files with alternative extensions. An attacker uploads a crafted H5P package containing a webshell and .htaccess that enables PHP execution for .txt files, bypassing security control. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.36.
Chamilo LMS is an open-source learning management system. In versions prior to 2.0.0-RC.3, an OS Command Injection vulnerability exists in the main/inc/ajax/gradebook.ajax.php endpoint within the export_all_certificates action, where the course code retrieved from the session variable $_SESSION['_cid'] via api_get_course_id() is concatenated directly into a shell_exec() command string without sanitization or escaping using escapeshellarg(). If an attacker can manipulate or poison their session data to inject shell metacharacters into the _cid variable, they can achieve arbitrary command execution on the underlying server. Successful exploitation grants full access to read system files and credentials, alters the application and database, or disrupts server availability. This issue has been fixed in version 2.0.0-RC.3.
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Chamilo LMS v1.11.13 allows attackers to enumerate the internal network and execute arbitrary system commands via a crafted Phar file.
Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Version 1.11.34 and prior contains a SQL Injection vulnerability in the statistics AJAX endpoint. The parameters date_start and date_end from $_REQUEST are embedded directly into a raw SQL string without proper sanitization. Although Database::escape_string() is called downstream, its output is immediately neutralized by str_replace("\'", "'", ...), which restores any injected single quotes — effectively bypassing the escaping mechanism entirely. This allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary SQL statements into the database query, enabling blind time-based and conditional data extraction. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.36.
Chamilo LMS 1.11.26 is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control via main/auth/profile. Non-admin users can manipulate sensitive profiles information, posing a significant risk to data integrity.
Chamilo is a learning management system. Prior to version 1.11.34, there is a stored XSS vulnerability in Chamilo LMS (Verison 1.11.32) allows an attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the platform’s social network and internal messaging features. When viewed by an authenticated user (including administrators), the payload executes in their browser within the LMS context. This enables full account takeover via session hijacking, unauthorized actions with the victim’s privileges, exfiltration of sensitive data, and potential self-propagation to other users. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.34.
Chamilo is a learning management system. Prior to version 1.11.30, the application performs insufficient validation of data coming from the user from the POST resource[document][SQL_INJECTION_HERE] and POST login parameters found in /main/coursecopy/copy_course_session_selected.php, which allows an attacker to perform an attack aimed at modifying the database query logic by injecting an arbitrary SQL statements. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.30.
A remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in course_intro_pdf_import.php of Chamilo LMS v1.11.x allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .htaccess file.
Command injection in `main/lp/openoffice_text_document.class.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.24 allows users permitted to upload Learning Paths to obtain remote code execution via improper neutralisation of special characters.
Command injection in `main/lp/openoffice_presentation.class.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.24 allows users permitted to upload Learning Paths to obtain remote code execution via improper neutralisation of special characters.
Chamilo LMS 1.11.8 and 2.x allows remote code execution through an lp_upload.php unauthenticated file upload feature. It extracts a ZIP archive before checking its content, and once it has been extracted, does not check files in a recursive way. This means that by putting a .php file in a folder and then this folder in a ZIP archive, the server will accept this file without any checks. Because one can access this file from the website, it is remote code execution. This is related to a scorm imsmanifest.xml file, the import_package function, and extraction in $courseSysDir.$newDir.
Unrestricted file upload in big file upload functionality in `/main/inc/lib/javascript/bigupload/inc/bigUpload.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.24 allows unauthenticated attackers to perform stored cross-site scripting attacks and obtain remote code execution via uploading of web shell.
An arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the /fileUpload.lib.php component of Chamilo 1.11.* up to v1.11.18 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via uploading a crafted SVG file.

Magento Long Term Support (LTS) is an unofficial, community-driven project provides an alternative to the Magento Community Edition e-commerce platform with a high level of backward compatibility. Prior to version 20.17.0, the product custom option file upload in OpenMage LTS uses an incomplete blocklist (`forbidden_extensions = php,exe`) to prevent dangerous file uploads. This blocklist can be trivially bypassed by using alternative PHP-executable extensions such as `.phtml`, `.phar`, `.php3`, `.php4`, `.php5`, `.php7`, and `.pht`. Files are stored in the publicly accessible `media/custom_options/quote/` directory, which lacks server-side execution restrictions for some configurations, enabling Remote Code Execution if this directory is not explicitly denied script execution. Version 20.17.0 patches the issue.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the `downloadVideoFromDownloadURL()` function in `objects/aVideoEncoder.json.php` saves remote content to a web-accessible temporary directory using the original URL's filename and extension (including `.php`). By providing an invalid `resolution` parameter, an attacker triggers an early `die()` via `forbiddenPage()` before the temp file can be moved or cleaned up, leaving an executable PHP file persistently accessible under the web root at `videos/cache/tmpFile/`. Commit 6da79b43484099a0b660d1544a63c07b633ed3a2 contains a patch.
