CVE-2015-2266: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor
(updated )
message/index.php in Moodle through 2.5.9, 2.6.x before 2.6.9, 2.7.x before 2.7.6, and 2.8.x before 2.8.4 does not consider the moodle/site:readallmessages capability before accessing arbitrary conversations, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive personal-contact and unread-message-count information via a modified URL.
