mod/forum/classes/post_form.php in Moodle through 2.3.11, 2.4.x before 2.4.11, 2.5.x before 2.5.7, 2.6.x before 2.6.4, and 2.7.x before 2.7.1 does not enforce the moodle/site:accessallgroups capability requirement before proceeding with a post to all groups, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging two or more group memberships.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Some Moodle forum versions allowed a logged-in user in multiple groups to post across all groups without the required permission. This could undermine group-separated course discussions. The source bundle provides no CVSS score, KEV listing, or active exploitation evidence. Exposure is limited to Moodle through 2.3.11, 2.4.x before 2.4.11, 2.5.x before 2.5.7, 2.6.x before 2.6.4, and 2.7.x before 2.7.1. Prioritize remediation for internet-facing or high-use Moodle sites where forum group separation protects student, course, or organizational boundaries. Urgency is moderate unless local evidence shows abuse. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Moodle deployments to a fixed branch release or later.; Retire or isolate Moodle 2.3.x deployments and check Moodle guidance.; Review forum group configuration for courses using multiple group memberships..
