It was created to provide a secure, scalable, and customizable platform for online learning, allowing organizations to create and deliver engaging courses, track student progress, and manage their learning activities.

However, Moodle is not immune to security vulnerabilities, and recently, a new CVE-2023-30943 vulnerability has been discovered in the platform. This vulnerability exists because the application allows a user to control the path of the older to create in TinyMCE loaders.
