Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-09-04 22:14:10 UTC
When restricting access to a Lesson activity with a password, certain passwords could be bypassed/less secure due to a loose comparison in the password checking logic.                  (Note: this only affected passwords that are set to "magic hash" values. These are certain values where a loose comparison in the code can result in multiple values "matching" the password, instead of the expected behaviour that only an exact match for the password will be accepted).
