Descriptions

Moodle 1.8 before 1.8.11 and 1.9 before 1.9.7 does not use a random password salt in config.php, which makes it easier for attackers to conduct brute-force password guessing attacks.

Moodle v1.8 anteriores a v1.8.11 y v1.9 anteriores a v1.9.7 no utiliza variación aleatorio de contraseñas en config.php, lo que hace mas facil para los atacantes dirigir un ataque de fuerza bruta contra la contraseña.
