REDHAT-BUG-2543640: Low severity Moodle Moodle vulnerability

Published Sep 29, 2026
·
Updated

A flaw was found in Moodle. An incorrect capability check in the AI editor placement's "generate image" web service allowed a user to invoke that feature without holding the required capability. The advisory does not state the exact privilege level of an affected user; this draft assumes access is limited to users who already hold some content-editing role rather than a fully anonymous or lowest-privilege user.

1

Which user accounts should be prioritized during triage?

The advisory does not specify the exact privilege level required. This draft assumes exposure is limited to users who already have a content-editing role, rather than anonymous or lowest-privilege accounts.

2

Does the available advisory confirm whether default Moodle deployments are affected?

No. It does not state whether the affected AI editor placement or its image-generation feature is enabled by default.
