CVE-2011-4294: Input Validation

First published: Mon Jul 16 2012(Updated: )

The error-message functionality in Moodle 1.9.x before 1.9.13, 2.0.x before 2.0.4, and 2.1.x before 2.1.1 does not ensure that a continuation link refers to an http or https URL for the local Moodle instance, which might allow attackers to trick users into visiting arbitrary web sites via error message links that lead offsite.
