Description
This issue has already been reported, but the hyperlink is not active, http://docs.moodle.org/en/Release_Notes#Known_problems_and_regressions. Has this issue been resolved? My company hosts for several school districts. We recently received a complaint regarding this issue. If this issue has not been resolved, is there a way to find out which user is putting the site in maintenance mode?
That issue was not a security problem in fact, because all the users that are allowed to use course restore feature must be trusted. No user with restore capability should ever try this DoS, if they do you have much bigger problems elsewhere.
It is just a normal bug where some teachers might accidentally send the site to Maintenance mode.
I have fixed the release notes, thanks for the report.
