Overview

moodle/moodle is a learning platform.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure Through Misconfigured Permissions in a shared hosting environment that has been misconfigured to allow access to other users' content. An attacker can execute arbitrary local files by modifying the backup files of the mod_feedback module. This is only exploitable if the attacker has both the ability to restore feedback modules and direct access to the web server outside of the Moodle webroot.
