Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
The rating component in Moodle through 2.6.11, 2.7.x before 2.7.10, 2.8.x before 2.8.8, and 2.9.x before 2.9.2 mishandles group-based authorization checks, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by reading a rating value.
