Lifecycle Timeline
7DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to 2.0.0-RC.3, an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability in the /social-network/personal-data/{userId} endpoint allows any authenticated user to access full personal data and API tokens of arbitrary users by modifying the userId parameter. This results in mass disclosure of sensitive user information and credentials, enabling a full platform data breach. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.0.0-RC.3.
AnalysisAI
Insecure Direct Object Reference in Chamilo LMS allows authenticated users to access complete personal data and API tokens of any user by manipulating the userId parameter in the /social-network/personal-data/{userId} endpoint. Attack requires only low-privilege authentication (PR:L) and no user interaction, enabling mass disclosure of credentials and sensitive information across the entire platform. Affects all Chamilo LMS versions prior to 2.0.0-RC.3. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key) flaw in social networking module fails to validate authenticated user authorization against requested userId parameter. Missing object-level access control permits horizontal privilege escalation, exposing profile data and authentication tokens through predictable numeric user identifiers. Network-accessible (AV:N), low complexity (AC:L), no attack complexity requirements (AT:N).
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Chamilo LMS version 2.0.0-RC.3 or later, which implements proper authorization checks on the social-network personal data endpoint. Organizations unable to upgrade immediately should implement network-level access controls restricting authenticated user access to the /social-network/personal-data/ endpoint, or temporarily disable the social networking module until patching is complete. Rotate all API tokens for users whose data may have been accessed. Full advisory available at https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/security/advisories/GHSA-27x6-c5c7-gpf5
