AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 fails to validate restream ownership in getRestream.json.php, allowing authenticated users with canStream permission to mint tokens for arbitrary restreams. Attackers can exchange the token to retrieve other users' stream keys from getLiveKey.json.php and publish to their YouTube, Twitch, or RTMP destinations.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which users can exploit this issue?

An attacker must be authenticated and have the canStream permission. No additional user interaction is required.

2

What can an attacker do with a minted token?

The attacker can exchange it through getLiveKey.json.php to retrieve another user's stream key. They can then publish streams to that user's configured YouTube, Twitch, or RTMP destinations.

3

Are only the attacker's own restreams exposed?

No. The authorization failure allows token creation for arbitrary restreams because ownership is not validated.
