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.
Analysis
Remote code execution in Chamilo LMS versions prior to 2.0.0-RC.3 allows authenticated attackers with administrative privileges to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code via platform configuration settings. The PlatformConfigurationController::decodeSettingArray() method unsafely uses eval() to parse database-stored settings, executing injected code when any user-including unauthenticated visitors-accesses the /platform-config/list endpoint. …
