That's good news, which means there's no need for security advisories. 
However...

> No upload needed to fix this. 

here I do not agree. The vulnerable code is still present, and I think it's 
unwise to be shipping code that's known to be vulnerable. The problem might 
resurface when someone (upstream, downstream) changes Moodle, or when someone 
takes the code to use it in a different project.

The fix is trivial. Please apply it (or better: make sure upstream applies 
it), or remove the code altogether.


thanks,
Thijs
