A flaw was found in Moodle. User list filters did not respect user profile field visibility settings, allowing a manager to filter by a profile field they could not otherwise view on a user's profile, resulting in partial, inference-based information disclosure.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

What access does an attacker need to exploit this issue?

The attacker must have manager-level access that allows them to use user list filters. The disclosure occurs when they filter on a user profile field that is hidden from them on individual user profiles.

2

What information can be exposed?

The issue can reveal partial information through inference based on filter results. It does not indicate that the hidden profile field value is directly displayed.
