Moodle contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to trick a user into visiting an arbitrary site under the apparent trust of a legitimate site. The issue is due to the jumpto.php script providing a site redirect to an arbitrary web site. This may give an attacker a way to trick a user into clicking what appears to be a legitimate URL of a valid site, but really leads them to an arbitrary site with malicious content.
