NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream moodle package and not the moodle package as distributed by Ubuntu.

lib/filelib.php in Moodle 2.1.x before 2.1.8, 2.2.x before 2.2.5, and 2.3.x before 2.3.2 does not properly check the publication state of blog files, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading a blog entry that references a non-public file.
