The stored-XSS vulnerability was discovered in Moodle which exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in several "social" user profile fields. An attacker could inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - The stored-XSS vulnerability was discovered in Moodle which exists due to insufficient sanitization of     user-supplied data in several social user profile fields. An attacker could inject and execute arbitrary     HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website. (CVE-2022-45151)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - The stored-XSS vulnerability was discovered in Moodle which exists due to insufficient sanitization of
    user-supplied data in several "social" user profile fields. An attacker could inject and execute arbitrary
    HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website. (CVE-2022-45151)

The remote Fedora 37 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-74a9c8e95f advisory.

    Fixes for multiple CVEs

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Moodle installed on the remote host is 3.9.x prior to 3.9.18, 3.11.x prior to 3.11.11 or 4.0.x prior to 4.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - An information disclosure due to a user CSRF token being unnecessarily included in the URL during the redirection to a course which has been just restored. (CVE-2022-45149)

 - A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to the lack of sanitization of the return URL in the policy tool. (CVE-2022-45150)

 - A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to the lack of sanitization of the 'social' user profile field type. (CVE-2022-45151)

 - A blind Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability due to the LTI provider library not using Moodle inbuilt cURL helper. (CVE-2022-45152)

Note that the scanner has not attempted to exploit this issue but has instead relied only on application's self-reported version number.

The remote Fedora 36 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-f7fdcb1820 advisory.
