AI-suggested

Upgrade Chamilo LMS to version 1.11.38 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Remove or restrict access to the main/install/ directory if upgrading is not immediately possible. Patch status is confirmed fixed in version 1.11.38. No vendor advisory content was provided, but the CVE description explicitly states the fix version.

Description

Chamilo LMS is a learning management system. Prior to 1.11.38, a chained attack can enable otherwise-blocked PHP code from the main/install/ directory and allow an unauthenticated attacker to modify existing files or create new files where allowed by system permissions. This only affects portals with the main/install/ directory still present and read-accessible. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.11.38.
