An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-26045 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 4.5.9\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 4.5.9\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 5.0.0-beta; fixed in 5.0.5\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 5.0.0-beta; fixed in 5.0.5\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 5.1.0-beta; fixed in 5.1.2\n- moodle/moodle (Packagist): affected from 5.1.0-beta; fixed in 5.1.2\n- moodle (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 4.5.9, 5.0.5, 5.1.2\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-2026-26045/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-26045/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-26045","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-26045/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-26045","record":{"aliases":["BIT-moodle-2026-26045","GHSA-ggxq-2mg9-8966","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-26045"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Moodle LMS","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary server-side code by restoring maliciously crafted backup files in Moodle.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fedora","cpe":[{"product":"moodle","vendor":"moodle"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"A flaw was identified in Moodle’s backup restore functionality where specially crafted backup files were not properly validated during processing.
