Technical ContextAI · show details
Classified as CWE-502 (Deserialization of Untrusted Data). Affects Chamilo Lms. 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.

2DescriptionGitHub Advisory
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.
Executive ViewAI
Chamilo LMS instances running versions 1.11.12 through 1.11.26 are vulnerable to remote code execution through a post-authentication exploit with no available patch. Organizations using affected Chamilo versions face immediate risk of system compromise and data breach, particularly concerning given the public availability of exploit code.
Restrict Chamilo administrative and instructor access through network segmentation and VPN; implement WAF rules to detect and block phar:// protocol usage and serialized object patterns; disable file upload and integration features where possible; enforce strong authentication and session monitoring; maintain audit logs of privileged user activities; consider temporary restriction of remote access until patch is available.
Threat Intelligence Overview
How this decision was reached
The engine reads each signal below and applies a fixed list of rules from top to bottom. The first rule that matches sets the recommended action – like a statement, every line is shown.
What every action level means
SSVC AssessmentENISA
Priority Score
Attack Technique
Insecure deserialization occurs when an application converts serialized data (a stream of bytes representing an object's state) back into a living object without proper validation.
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
