CVE-2026-82877
MediumCVSS 6.5Summary
ILIAS versions before 9.22, 10.0 through 10.9, and 11.0 through 11.2 contain an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the SOAP addFile method that allows authenticated users to read server files by supplying crafted XML with COPY-mode imports. Attackers can construct absolute file paths through an unsandboxed import directory and retrieve sensitive files including configuration files containing database credentials and setup passwords.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker can access sensitive server files, including credentials, potentially leading to full system compromise. Data confidentiality breaches can have severe consequences for the organization.
Recommendation
Update ILIAS to a patched version (9.22 or later, 10.10 or later, 11.3 or later). Also restrict access to the SOAP addFile method and sandbox the import directory.
