Overview

moodle/moodle is a learning platform.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Open Redirect due to improper validation of user-supplied input to PARAM_LOCALURL in the clean_param function. An attacker can redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks by exploiting the HTTP Referer header that partially matches a local URL.
