Synopsis

Moodle 3.9.x < 3.9.16 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

The version of Moodle installed on the remote host is 3.9.x prior to 3.9.16, 3.11.x prior to 3.11.9 or 4.0.x prior to 4.0.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - A vulnerable version of the Mustache template library included in Moodle. (CVE-2022-0323)

 - A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability due to the lack of token check when enabling and disabled installed H5P libraries. (CVE-2022-2986)

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

Solution

Upgrade to version 3.9.16 or later.
