Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-12156 is a cross-site scripting issue in Moodle 3.x. It affects the contact form on the non-respondents page for non-anonymous feedback. Successful abuse could cause browser-executed script in the context of a Moodle user who views or uses that workflow. Organizations running Moodle 3.x with non-anonymous feedback activities may be exposed, especially where teachers, managers, or administrators use the non-respondents contact form. The bundle does not identify specific fixed or unaffected Moodle 3.x versions. Treat as a moderate web application risk if Moodle 3.x is still present. Prioritize confirmation and upgrade planning because the vulnerability affects user-browser trust and the source bundle lacks precise fixed-version detail. Mitigation focus: Review Moodle security guidance for CVE-2017-12156 and affected 3.x releases.; Upgrade Moodle to a vendor-supported release containing the relevant security fix.; Restrict access to feedback management pages to trusted roles..
