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.
