Description Jan Lieskovsky 2013-01-22 11:05:16 UTC
A security flaw was found in the way Moodle, a course management system, enforced hidden field requirement on the last access item of the Activity report. When a last access item was requested to be hidden, it was still displayed in the Activity Report.

Comment 1 Jan Lieskovsky 2013-01-22 11:08:08 UTC
This issue did NOT affect the versions of the moodle package, as shipped with Fedora release of 16, 17, 18, and Fedora EPEL 6 (those moodle package versions are already updated and contain the fix).

--

This issue affects the version of the moodle package, as shipped with Fedora EPEL 5 (relevant source code part where patch is applicable is: rpmbuild/BUILD/moodle/course/report/outline/index.php around line #18).
