Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Claroline versions prior to 1.8.6

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the language parameter. This is due to a directory traversal vulnerability in the inc/lib/language.lib.php file.
