CVE-2026-29041: Chamilo: Authenticated Remote Code Execution via Unrestricted File Upload

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 35/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.81% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 57.2% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: chamilo chamilo-lms 1.11.34.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to chamilo chamilo-lms 1.11.34 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

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.
