CVE-2016-2155: The grade-reporting feature in Singleview (aka Single View) in Moodle 2.8.x before 2.8.11, 2.9.x before 2.9...

The grade-reporting feature in Singleview (aka Single View) in Moodle 2.8.x before 2.8.11, 2.9.x before 2.9.5, and 3.0.x before 3.0.3 does not consider the moodle/grade:manage capability, which allows remote authenticated users to modify "Exclude grade" settings by leveraging the Non-Editing Instructor role.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This Moodle flaw let some authenticated teaching staff change whether grades were excluded from reporting even when they lacked the grade management permission. The business impact is integrity risk: grade records or reporting outcomes could be altered by a role that should not have that authority. Exposure is limited to Moodle deployments running 2.8.x before 2.8.11, 2.9.x before 2.9.5, or 3.0.x before 3.0.3, where users hold the Non-Editing Instructor role or comparable access to grade reporting. Prioritize remediation for any still-running affected Moodle instance because the flaw can undermine grade integrity. This is not presented as a broad system takeover, but it affects trust in academic records and should be closed promptly. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Moodle to 2.8.11, 2.9.5, 3.0.3, or a later supported release.; Review Moodle vendor guidance and the MDL-52378 fix notes.; Audit Non-Editing Instructor assignments in affected courses..
