DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Moodle, which can be
exploited by malicious users to bypass certain security restrictions
and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
1) An error exists in the handling of access permissions of a teacher
when viewing student reports of a group via the quiz review page. This
can be exploited to view otherwise restricted reports of all
students.
2) An error exists in user/profile.php when viewing the full profile
page, which could lead to a user's email address being displayed to
users other than course members.
This vulnerability does not affect versions 1.9.x.
3) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site.
This vulnerability does not affect versions 2.0.x.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.9.12 or 2.0.3.
