Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Claroline, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute malicious scripting code or disclose the contents of arbitrary files.
The first issue is caused by an input validation error in the "inc/lib/language.lib.php" script when processing the "language" parameter, which could be exploited by malicious users to include local files with the privileges of the web server.
The second vulnerability is caused by input validation errors in the "admin/adminusers.php", "admin/advancedUserSearch.php" and "admin/campusProblem.php" scripts when processing the "dir", "action" and "view" parameters, which could be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross site scripting attacks.
