Descriptions

webservice/upload.php in Moodle 2.6.x before 2.6.6 and 2.7.x before 2.7.3 does not ensure that a file upload is for a private or draft area, which allows remote authenticated users to upload files containing JavaScript, and consequently conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, by specifying the profile-picture area.

webservice/upload.php en Moodle 2.6.x anterior a 2.6.6 y 2.7.x anterior a 2.7.3 no asegura que una subida de ficheros es para una área privada o de borrador, lo que permite a usuarios remotos autenticados subir ficheros que contienen JavaScript, y como consecuencia realizar ataques de XSS, al especificar la área de la imagen de perfil.
