# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2015-5340

Advisory: Moodle sensitive information disclosure
IDs: CVE-2015-5340, GHSA-mmvj-j7hq-rx85
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2015-5340 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:33 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 4.3)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: moodle/moodle 2.9.3, 2.8.9, 2.7.11. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Packagist moodle/moodle: affected <= 2.6.11; >= 2.7.0, < 2.7.11; >= 2.8.0, < 2.8.9; >= 2.9.0, < 2.9.3; fixed in 2.9.3, 2.7.11, 2.8.9

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Packagist moodle/moodle: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on moodle/moodle.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
