| Detailed Description |
The Moodle Software is vulnerable to an SQL injection vulnerability via the 'tag' parameter in the 'blog/index.php' script. Moodle is an open-source PHP-based course management system (CMS) for Microsoft Windows, Unix, and Linux-based platforms. Moodle version 1.6.2 and version 1.18.2.2 are vulnerable to a SQL injection vulnerability, caused by improper filtering of user-supplied input passed to the 'tag' parameter of the 'blog/index.php' script. This vulnerability could permit a remote attacker to pass malicious input to database queries, potentially resulting in data exposure, modification of the query logic, or even data modification or attacks against the database itself.
