AVideo through 29.0 (current revision e01e41ecc) contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability. The unauthenticated view-counter endpoint objects/videoAddViewCount.json.php reaches VideoStatistic::save(), which writes the caller's User-Agent (via getUserAgentInfo(), which returns unrecognized agent strings verbatim) directly into the app column of the videosstatistics table without invoking the sanitizing setter setApp(); normalizeApp() only truncates the value to 45 characters. The video owner's and administrator's statistics page (view/videoViewsInfo.php) renders this field in a DataTables 1.12.1 column with an unescaped renderer, and DataTables assigns cell content using innerHTML, so attacker-supplied HTML is parsed and executed in the privileged user's authenticated session when the statistics page is viewed. No patched version was available at the time of the advisory.
AVideo through 29.0 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in restreamsActive.json.php that allows authenticated streamers to enumerate source stream keys and identities of all other streamers' active restreams. The endpoint fails to filter results by user ownership, exposing sensitive transmission credentials and streamer identity across all accounts to any user with streaming capability.
AVideo through 29.0 (commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1) fails to validate video access permissions in the API like endpoint, allowing logged-in users to vote on password-protected and group-restricted videos. Attackers can submit like and dislike requests to increment vote counters on videos they cannot watch by calling the set.json.php endpoint with APIName parameters.
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.
AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 fails to verify ownership in addLiveLink.php when updating LiveLinks, allowing authenticated users to modify other users' links. A canStream user can overwrite another user's LiveLink HLS source and metadata by supplying an existing linkId, redirecting viewers to attacker-controlled media.
WWBN AVideo at commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 and earlier contains an XML injection vulnerability in plugin/ADServer/VMAP.php, which is reachable without authentication when the ADServer plugin is enabled. The script emits Content-Type: application/xml and writes the timeOffset and idTag values returned by ADServer::getVMAPSFromRequest() directly into VMAP attributes without encoding. Those values originate from the base64- and JSON-decoded $REQUEST['vmaps'] parameter, which is not covered by $securityFilter in objects/security.php. A remote attacker can craft a vmaps value (containing a non-empty VAST.campaing entry) and induce a user to open the resulting VMAP URL or a video page using it, injecting arbitrary <vmap:AdBreak> and <vmap:AdTagURI>/AdSource nodes into the generated XML. The player's IMA path (afterVideoJS -> PlayerSkins::setIMAADTag) then requests the attacker-supplied ad URLs, resulting in ad injection and cross-origin requests from the victim's playback session. The issue was unfixed at the time of reporting.
WWBN AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in playlistsFromUser.json.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to read private playlists by requesting another user's identifier. Attackers can retrieve Favorite and Watch Later playlists belonging to other users due to improper cache keying that conflates requests across different user contexts.
AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Bookmark plugin where chapter names are not encoded before being concatenated into public watch-page HTML. A video owner can inject malicious scripts via the bookmark name parameter, and every visitor of that video executes the payload in the AVideo origin.
AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 fails to validate ad impressions in plugin/ADServer/log.php, allowing logged-in users to submit arbitrary label values that trigger unverified wallet credits to campaign video owners. Attackers can repeatedly POST label=start requests to mint YPTWallet balance for any campaign video without proof an ad actually played.
AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 contains an open redirect in objects/playlistSort.php. Because the endpoint is not a .json.php script, AVideo's automatic CSRF guard (autoCSRFGuard()/forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest()) does not run, and when the request includes the sort parameter the script issues a Location header set to the unvalidated $SERVER['HTTPREFERER'] value without calling isSafeRedirectURL(). A remote unauthenticated attacker can therefore induce a logged-in user who can manage the targeted playlist to submit a cross-origin POST with a crafted Referer, causing the victim's playlist to be reordered and the victim's browser to be redirected from a trusted AVideo URL to an attacker-controlled site for phishing. No patched version is available.
WWBN AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in view/logArchive.json.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to archive application logs by making GET requests without CSRF token validation. Attackers can craft malicious pages that trigger administrators' browsers to request the endpoint, copying sensitive application logs to a publicly accessible zip file and truncating the live log to remove forensic evidence.
AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability where sqlDAL caches empty result sets that writeSql never invalidates. Attackers with a valid password can bypass email two-factor authentication on new devices because the confirmation code hash fails to generate from the stale cached empty result.
AVideo contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in plugin/API/set.json.php that allows attackers to perform state-changing actions by crafting GET requests that bypass CSRF protection. Attackers can navigate a victim's browser to a malicious URL with API parameters to delete videos, deactivate accounts, or modify playlists without user interaction.
WWBN AVideo through commit 9c39d8c8 contains an incomplete authentication bypass in encryptPass.json.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to compute valid HMAC tokens using the public site URL and current time. Attackers can forge authentication tokens by computing hashhmac with the site's base URL as the key and submit arbitrary passwords to receive encrypted hashes, enabling offline precomputation attacks against stolen password databases.
AVideo through commit c91b5975d contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in userLogin.php where the cancelUri parameter is echoed in an href attribute after isSafeRedirectURL checks protocol only, not HTML characters. Unauthenticated attackers can inject event handlers via relative URLs with embedded quotes to execute arbitrary JavaScript when users interact with the Cancel button.
AVideo through 29.0 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in plugin/PlayLists/epg.json.php that exposes live-stream keys and private EPG schedules to unauthenticated users. Attackers can request the endpoint with sequential user or playlist IDs to retrieve sensitive credentials, server identifiers, and complete programme schedules without authentication.
AVideo through version 25.0 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the decryptMessage.json.php endpoint that allows unauthenticated users to decrypt PGP messages. Remote attackers can submit private keys, ciphertext, and passphrases to perform server-side decryption without credentials, exposing key material to logs and enabling resource exhaustion attacks.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 expose sensitive user information through an unauthenticated public API endpoint. Responses include emails, usernames, administrative status, and last login times, enabling user enumeration and privacy violations.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 contain an open redirect vulnerability caused by insufficient validation of the siteRedirectUri parameter during user registration. Attackers can redirect users to external sites, facilitating phishing attacks.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 contain an insecure direct object reference vulnerability allowing users with upload permissions to modify the rotation metadata of any video. The endpoint verifies upload capability but fails to enforce ownership or management rights for the targeted video.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 permit any authenticated user to upload comment images to videos owned by other users. The endpoint validates authentication but omits ownership checks, allowing attackers to perform unauthorized uploads to arbitrary video objects.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 allow any authenticated user to upload files into directories belonging to other users due to an insecure direct object reference. The upload functionality verifies authentication but does not enforce ownership checks.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 are vulnerable to an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) that allows any authenticated user to delete media files belonging to other users. The affected endpoint validates authentication but fails to verify ownership or edit permissions for the targeted video.
AVideo versions prior to 20.1 with the ImageGallery plugin enabled is vulnerable to unauthenticated file upload and deletion. Plugin endpoints responsible for managing gallery images fail to enforce authentication checks and do not validate ownership, allowing unauthenticated attackers to upload or delete images associated with any image-based video.
AVideo versions 14.3.1 prior to 20.1 contain an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability caused by predictable generation of an installation salt using PHP uniqid(). The installation timestamp is exposed via a public endpoint, and a derived hash identifier is accessible through unauthenticated API responses, allowing attackers to brute-force the remaining entropy. The recovered salt can then be used to encrypt a malicious payload supplied to a notification API endpoint that evaluates attacker-controlled input, resulting in arbitrary code execution as the web server user.
AVideo through 29.0 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the Meet plugin's uploadRecordedVideo.json.php endpoint that derives the target usersid from the uploaded filename without verification. An attacker with knowledge of the Meet shared secret can craft a malicious file upload with a filename containing an arbitrary usersid to invoke passwordless User->login() and establish an authenticated session as any user including admin. Attackers can obtain the Meet shared secret through path-traversal vulnerabilities or timing attacks against checkToken.json.php, then POST a crafted file to uploadRecordedVideo.json.php with a filename like '1-anything.mp4' to hijack admin sessions and gain full account takeover.
AVideo through version 26.0 contains multiple unauthenticated list.json.php endpoints in payment plugins lacking authorization checks, exposing PayPal tokens, Authorize.Net webhooks, and Bitcoin transaction records. Unauthenticated attackers can retrieve all payment transaction data including agreement IDs, user financial records, and API responses via direct GET requests to vulnerable endpoints.
AVideo through version 27.0 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in plugin/Live/test.php that allows authenticated administrators to read arbitrary URLs via the statsURL parameter, which lacks isSSRFSafeURL() validation and accepts requests to private IP ranges and cloud metadata endpoints. Attackers can exploit this by crafting requests to internal services, cloud metadata endpoints like 169.254.169.254, and localhost to retrieve sensitive information including IAM credentials, internal service responses, and network configuration details.
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.
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.
