## What is CVE-2025-60511?

CVE-2025-60511 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in n/a, published on 21 Oct 2025. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

Moodle OpenAI Chat Block plugin 3.0.1 (2025021700) suffers from an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability due to insufficient validation of the blockId parameter in /blocks/openai_chat/api/completion.php. An authenticated student can impersonate another user's block (e.g., administrator) and send queries that are executed with that block's configuration. This can expose administrator-only Source of Truth entries, alter model behavior, and potentially misuse API resources.

Weakness: CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key)

Affected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
