In Moodle before 2.6.7, two files in the Glossary module lacked a session key check potentially allowing cross-site request forgery (CVE-2015-0213).

In Moodle before 2.6.7, through web-services it was possible to access messaging-related functions such as people search even if messaging is disabled on the site (CVE-2015-0214).
