WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, `POST /objects/aVideoEncoder.json.php` accepts a requester-controlled `chunkFile` parameter intended for staged upload chunks. Instead of restricting that path to trusted server-generated chunk locations, the endpoint accepts arbitrary local filesystem paths that pass `isValidURLOrPath()`. That helper allows files under broad server directories including `/var/www/`, the application root, cache, tmp, and `videos`, only rejecting `.php` files. For an authenticated uploader editing their own video, this becomes an arbitrary local file read. The endpoint copies the attacker-chosen local file into the attacker's public video storage path, after which it can be downloaded over HTTP. Commit 59bbd601a3f65a5b18c1d9e4eb11471c0a59214f contains a patch for the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, the `setPassword.json.php` endpoint in the CustomizeUser plugin allows administrators to set a channel password for any user. Due to a logic error in how the submitted password value is processed, any password containing non-numeric characters is silently coerced to the integer zero before being stored. This means that regardless of the intended password, the stored channel password becomes 0, which any visitor can trivially guess to bypass channel-level access control. Version 26.0 contains a patch for the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in `plugin/Live/standAloneFiles/saveDVR.json.php`. When the AVideo Live plugin is deployed in standalone mode (the intended configuration for this file), the `$_REQUEST['webSiteRootURL']` parameter is used directly to construct a URL that is fetched server-side via `file_get_contents()`. No authentication, origin validation, or URL allowlisting is performed. Version 26.0 contains a patch for the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability exists in `objects/category.php` in the `getAllCategories()` method. The `doNotShowCats` request parameter is sanitized only by stripping single-quote characters (`str_replace("'", '', ...)`), but this is trivially bypassed using a backslash escape technique to shift SQL string boundaries. The parameter is not covered by any of the application's global input filters in `objects/security.php`. Version 26.0 contains a patch for the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, the BulkEmbed plugin's save endpoint (`plugin/BulkEmbed/save.json.php`) fetches user-supplied thumbnail URLs via `url_get_contents()` without SSRF protection. Unlike all six other URL-fetching endpoints in AVideo that were hardened with `isSSRFSafeURL()`, this code path was missed. An authenticated attacker can force the server to make HTTP requests to internal network resources and retrieve the responses by viewing the saved video thumbnail. Version 26.0 fixes the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, WWBN/AVideo contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the CDN plugin's download buttons component. The `clean_title` field of a video record is interpolated directly into a JavaScript string literal without any escaping, allowing an attacker who can create or modify a video to inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the browser of any user who visits the affected download page. Version 26.0 fixes the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, WWBN/AVideo contains an open redirect vulnerability in the login flow where a user-supplied redirectUri parameter is reflected directly into a JavaScript `document.location` assignment without JavaScript-safe encoding. After a user completes the login popup flow, a timer callback executes the redirect using the unvalidated value, sending the victim to an attacker-controlled site. Version 26.0 fixes the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, the `uploadVideoToLinkedIn()` method in the SocialMediaPublisher plugin constructs a shell command by directly interpolating an upload URL received from LinkedIn's API response, without sanitization via `escapeshellarg()`. If an attacker can influence the LinkedIn API response (via MITM, compromised OAuth token, or API compromise), they can inject arbitrary OS commands that execute as the web server user. Version 26.0 contains a fix for the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, the HLS streaming endpoint (`view/hls.php`) is vulnerable to a path traversal attack that allows an unauthenticated attacker to stream any private or paid video on the platform. The `videoDirectory` GET parameter is used in two divergent code paths — one for authorization (which truncates at the first `/` segment) and one for file access (which preserves `..` traversal sequences) — creating a split-oracle condition where authorization is checked against one video while content is served from another. Version 26.0 contains a fix for the issue.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, the `deleteDump` parameter in `plugin/CloneSite/cloneServer.json.php` is passed directly to `unlink()` without any path sanitization. An attacker with valid clone credentials can use path traversal sequences (e.g., `../../`) to delete arbitrary files on the server, including critical application files such as `configuration.php`, causing complete denial of service or enabling further attacks by removing security-critical files. Version 26.0 fixes the issue.
