Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-25629 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.5; fixed in 3.5.14\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.5; fixed in 3.5.14\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.7; fixed in 3.7.8\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.7; fixed in 3.7.8\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.8; fixed in 3.8.5\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.8; fixed in 3.8.5\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.9; fixed in 3.9.2\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 3.9; fixed in 3.9.2\n- moodle (Bitnami): affected from 3.5.0; fixed in 3.5.14, 3.7.8, 3.8.5, 3.9.2\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-25629/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-25629/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-25629","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-25629/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-25629","record":{"aliases":["BIT-moodle-2020-25629","GHSA-f5r8-7h4f-jr9x","UBUNTU-CVE-2020-25629"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Moodle LMS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Course managers can escalate privileges to site administration by logging in as a System manager, requiring an upgrade to patched Moodle versions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"moodle","vendor":"moodle"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"},{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"A vulnerability was found in Moodle where users with \"Log in as\" capability in a course context (typically, course managers) may gain access to some site administration capabilities by \"logging in as\" a System manager.
