Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Moodle (the Packagist package moodle/moodle) is affected in versions before 4.3.0-rc2. The source describes the issue only as a need for stronger revision number limits on file serving endpoints to improve protection against cache poisoning, and gives few details about how it could be exploited or what an attacker would gain. The fix is in 4.3.0-rc2, so users should upgrade to that version or later.
