NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream moodle package and not the moodle package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

tag/tag_autocomplete.php in Moodle through 2.4.11, 2.5.x before 2.5.9, 2.6.x before 2.6.6, and 2.7.x before 2.7.3 does not consider the moodle/tag:edit capability before adding a tag, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions via an AJAX request.
