VulnDex Beacon for Moodle

The VulnDex Beacon for Moodle automatically collects version and system information and transmits it to the VulnDex platform.

The aim is to provide a central overview of installed instances and to cross-reference them with known vulnerabilities (CVEs) at an early stage.

An active VulnDex subscription and API key is required.

Features

• Automatic detection of the Moodle version


• Collection of installed apps and versions


• Collection of installed themes and versions


• Regular status reports to VulnDex


• Centralised assignment to teams and services


• Basis for continuous vulnerability monitoring

How it works

The Beacon is installed as a local plugin in Moodle and sends data to the VulnDex API at defined intervals.

The data is processed in VulnDex and enriched with up-to-date vulnerability information. This provides a continuous overview of affected systems.
