Secunia Security Advisory – rgod has discovered some vulnerabilities in Moodle, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks. 1) Input passed to the id parameter in category.php and info.php, and the user parameter in plot.php isn’t properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. Successful exploitation requires that magic_quotes_gpc is disabled. 2) Input passed to the jump parameter in jumpto.php isn’t properly verified and sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary Javascript code in a user’s browser session in context of an affected site via the javascript: URI handler. The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 1.5.2. Other versions may also be affected.
