CVE-2026-44344: Chamilo LMS arbitrary code execution in HTML_QuickForm

CVE-2026-44344 · Severity: medium · CVSS 6.6 · Published 2026-10-30

Chamilo LMS is an open-source learning management system used for course delivery and student management. A vulnerability in the vendored PEAR HTML_QuickForm library allows arbitrary PHP code execution on the server through specially crafted form element names. This impact is limited to custom plugins or misconfigurations that expose element names to user input, but where such conditions exist, an attacker can fully compromise the server.

Technologies: Chamilo Lms. Vendors: Chamilo.

How to fix

Fixed in: 1.11.40, 2.0.1

Technical details

The vulnerability stems from unsafe eval() calls in the HTML_QuickForm library that process form element names without proper sanitization. An attacker can inject PHP code via element names if they reach the vulnerable code path through a custom plugin or misconfiguration. Standard Chamilo deployments are protected by hardcoded element names, but any scenario allowing user-controlled input to define form element names enables remote code execution with application privileges.

Affected products

Chamilo LMS 1.x before 1.11.40, 2.x before 2.0.1
