There is no fixed version for Ubuntu:14.04 moodle.

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.

The rating component in Moodle through 2.6.11, 2.7.x before 2.7.10, 2.8.x before 2.8.8, and 2.9.x before 2.9.2 mishandles group-based authorization checks, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by reading a rating value.
