Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Dokeos, which may be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands. These flaws are due to input validation errors in the "claroline/exercice/testheaderpage.php" and "claroline/resourcelinker/resourcelinker.inc.php" scripts that do not validate the "rootSys" and "clarolineRepositorySys" parameters, which could be exploited by remote attackers to include malicious scripts and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the web server.

Note : This vulnerability is currently being exploited in the wild.
