According to its self-reported version, the Moodle install hosted on the remote host is prior to 4.1.11, 4.2.x prior to 4.2.8, or 4.3.x prior to 4.3.5 or 4.4.x prior to 4.4.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

- A unique key should be generated for a user's QR login key and their auto-login key, so the same key cannot be used interchangeably between the two.

- Incorrect CSRF token checks resulted in multiple CSRF risks.

- The cURL wrapper in Moodle retained the original request headers when following redirects, so HTTP authorization header information could be unintentionally sent in requests to redirect URLs.

- Insufficient escaping of calendar event titles resulted in a stored XSS risk in the event deletion prompt.

- Insufficient capability checks meant it was possible for users to gain access to BigBlueButton join URLs they did not have permission to access.

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