Cross-site scripting via unfiltered progress parameters
Published May 9, 2023 · Updated Jul 9, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Chamilo LMS 1.11.18 allows remote authenticated users to run scripts through progress-page parameters. The progress form in main/mySpace/access_details.php placed attacker-controlled student and course values into hidden fields without applying the form library's HTML filter. Exploitation requires low-privileged access and victim interaction; injected script executes in the victim's browser context, enabling page-content modification and limited data access.
