Security readout for executives and security teams

Older Moodle sites using MNET federation could let an authenticated remote peer do more than it should. If MNET services are enabled on Moodle 1.8 before 1.8.11 or 1.9 before 1.9.7, a trusted remote server may execute arbitrary MNET functions. Exposure is most likely on legacy Moodle 1.8.x or 1.9.x deployments that still have MNET services enabled and federated remote servers configured. Treat as high priority only for legacy Moodle environments using MNET. Modern or non-MNET Moodle deployments are not shown as affected by the provided evidence. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Moodle 1.8 deployments to 1.8.11 or later.; Upgrade Moodle 1.9 deployments to 1.9.7 or later.; Disable MNET services where federation is not required..
