If it were a reflection, it would brighten and dim rapidly as it turned. It is either a very white surface reflecting light or it is actual artificial light.

I'm curious if the camera and length of exposure is making these spots look brighter than they really are.

Good point. We assume that the rest of the rock is the same color as the moon. What if it’s significantly darker and this is brightened up to make it look much lighter, making the lighter part look almost dayglow white.
