CVE-2024-45689Network attack vector

Information disclosure via missing dynamic-table authorization

Published Nov 20, 2024 · Updated Nov 20, 2024

Missing authorization in Moodle LMS allows remote authenticated users to read restricted dynamic-table data over the network. The core_table external dynamic get handler instantiated requested table classes and returned their rows after only a context check, without invoking table-specific capability checks. Any authenticated account that can reach the handler can access participant, report, or plugin-management information beyond its assigned permissions.
