Machine-written summary

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

Moodle versions before 4.1.22, 4.4.0-beta through before 4.4.12, 4.5.0-beta through before 4.5.8, 5.0.0-beta through before 5.0.4, and 5.1.0-beta through before 5.1.1 are affected. A suspended user can authenticate through the LTI Provider because the LTI authentication handlers do not check suspension status, which can allow information disclosure or other unauthorized actions. Upgrade to 4.1.22, 4.4.12, 4.5.8, 5.0.4, or 5.1.1, depending on your branch. The source gives few details about the exact conditions required for exploitation.
