AVideo is a video-sharing Platform. Versions prior to 8.0 contain a SQL Injection vulnerability in the getSqlFromPost() method of Object.php. The $POST['sort'] array keys are used directly as SQL column identifiers inside an ORDER BY clause. Although realescapestring() was applied, it only escapes string-context characters (quotes, null bytes) and provides no protection for SQL identifiers — making it entirely ineffective here. This issue has been fixed in version 8.0. To workaround this issue without upgrading, operators can apply a WAF rule to block POST requests where any sort[] key contains characters outside [A-Za-z0-9]. Alternatively, restrict access to the queue view (queue.json.php, index.php) to trusted IP ranges only.

AVideo is a video-sharing Platform. Versions prior to 8.0 contain a Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerability (CWE-918) in the public thumbnail endpoints getImage.php and getImageMP4.php. Both endpoints accept a base64Url GET parameter, base64-decode it, and pass the resulting URL to ffmpeg as an input source without any authentication requirement. The prior validation only checked that the URL was syntactically valid (FILTERVALIDATEURL) and started with http(s)://. This is insufficient: an attacker can supply URLs such as http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/ (AWS/cloud instance metadata), http://192.168.x.x/, or http://127.0.0.1/ to make the server reach internal network resources. The response is not directly returned (blind), but timing differences and error logs can be used to infer results. The issue has been fixed in version 8.0.
