Wwbn: community verdicts

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo on_publish_done.php endpoint in the Live plugin allows unauthenticated users to terminate any active live stream. The endpoint processes RTMP callback events to mark streams as finished in the database, but performs no authentication or authorization checks before doing so. An attacker can enumerate active stream keys from the unauthenticated stats.json.php endpoint, then send crafted POST requests to on_publish_done.php to terminate any live broadcast. This enables denial-of-service against all live streaming functionality on the platform. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, view/update.php reads $_POST['updateFile'] as a relative path under updatedb/ and passes it to PHP's file() for line-by-line execution as part of a database migration. An authenticated administrator can abuse this to read arbitrary text files reachable from the web-server process.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, an unauthenticated remote attacker can read arbitrary image files anywhere on disk that the PHP user can open — including private user-profile photos that the application's normal serving wrappers gate behind ACLs, admin-uploaded thumbnails, encrypted-video poster frames, and image content under sibling-app directories reachable via .. traversal. The endpoint requires no authentication.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, objects/aVideoEncoderReceiveImage.json.php allowed an authenticated uploader to fetch attacker-controlled same-origin /videos/... URLs, bypass traversal scrubbing, and expose server-local files through the GIF poster storage path. The vulnerable GIF branch could be abused to read local files such as /etc/passwd or application source files and republish those bytes through a normal public GIF media URL.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo CreatePlugin template for list.json.php does not include any authentication or authorization check. While the companion templates add.json.php and delete.json.php both require admin privileges, the list.json.php template was shipped without this guard. Every plugin that uses the CreatePlugin code generator inherits this omission, resulting in 21 unauthenticated data listing endpoints across the platform. These endpoints expose sensitive data including user PII, payment transaction logs, IP addresses, user agents, and internal system records. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the plugin/API/check.ffmpeg.json.php endpoint probes the FFmpeg remote server configuration and returns connectivity status without any authentication. All sibling FFmpeg management endpoints (kill.ffmpeg.json.php, list.ffmpeg.json.php, ffmpeg.php) require User::isAdmin().

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the plugin/CloneSite/client.log.php endpoint serves the clone operation log file without any authentication. Every other endpoint in the CloneSite plugin directory enforces User::isAdmin(). The log contains internal filesystem paths, remote server URLs, and SSH connection metadata.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo installation script install/deleteSystemdPrivate.php contains a PHP operator precedence bug in its CLI-only access guard. The script is intended to run exclusively from the command line, but the guard condition !php_sapi_name() === 'cli' never evaluates to true due to how PHP resolves operator precedence. The ! (logical NOT) operator binds more tightly than === (strict comparison), causing the expression to always evaluate to false, which means the die() statement never executes. As a result, the script is accessible via HTTP without authentication and will delete files from the server's temp directory while also disclosing the temp directory contents in its response. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the install/test.php diagnostic script has its CLI-only access guard disabled by commenting out the die() statement. The script remains accessible via HTTP after installation, exposing video viewer statistics including IP addresses, session IDs, and user agents to unauthenticated visitors.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the EPG (Electronic Program Guide) link feature in AVideo allows authenticated users with upload permissions to store arbitrary URLs that the server fetches on every EPG page visit. The URL is validated only with PHP's FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, which accepts internal network addresses. Although AVideo has a dedicated isSSRFSafeURL() function for preventing SSRF, it is not called in this code path. This results in a stored server-side request forgery vulnerability that can be used to scan internal networks, access cloud metadata services, and interact with internal services. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, there is a classic shell-metacharacter injection. The YPTSocket notification branch in plugin/Live/on_publish.php builds an execAsync() command line by string concatenation, single-quoting each argument but never calling escapeshellarg(). A ' in any of the three interpolated values ($users_id, $m3u8, $obj->liveTransmitionHistory_id) closes the quoted token and lets the attacker append arbitrary commands.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the BlockonomicsYPT plugin's check.php endpoint returns payment order data for any Bitcoin address without requiring authentication. The endpoint was designed as an AJAX polling helper for the authenticated invoice.php page, but it performs no access control checks of its own. Since Bitcoin addresses are publicly visible on the blockchain, an attacker can query payment records for any address used on the platform.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the plugin/YPTWallet/view/users.json.php endpoint returns all platform users with their personal information and wallet balances to any authenticated user. The endpoint checks User::isLogged() but does not check User::isAdmin(), so any registered user can dump the full user database. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the StripeYPT plugin includes a test.php debug endpoint that is accessible to any logged-in user, not just administrators. This endpoint processes Stripe webhook-style payloads and triggers subscription operations, including cancellation. Due to a bug in the retrieveSubscriptions() method that cancels subscriptions instead of merely retrieving them, any authenticated user can cancel arbitrary Stripe subscriptions by providing a subscription ID. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo YPTSocket plugin's caller feature renders incoming call notifications using the jQuery Toast Plugin, passing the caller's display name directly as the heading parameter. The toast plugin constructs the heading as raw HTML ('<h2>' + heading + '</h2>') and inserts it into the DOM via jQuery's .html() method, which parses and executes any embedded HTML or script content. An attacker can set their display name to an XSS payload and trigger code execution on any online user's browser simply by initiating a call - no victim interaction is required beyond being connected to the WebSocket. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, AVideo's video processing pipeline accepts an overrideStatus request parameter that allows any uploader to set a video's status to any valid state, including "active" (a). This bypasses the admin-controlled moderation and draft workflows. The setStatus() method validates the status code against a list of known values but does not verify that the caller has permission to set that particular status. As a result, any user with upload permissions can publish videos directly, circumventing content review processes. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, AVideo's admin plugin configuration endpoint (admin/save.json.php) lacks any CSRF token validation. There is no call to isGlobalTokenValid() or verifyToken() before processing the request. Combined with the application's explicit SameSite=None cookie policy, an attacker can forge cross-origin POST requests from a malicious page to overwrite arbitrary plugin settings on a victim administrator's session. Because the plugins table is included in the ignoreTableSecurityCheck() array in objects/Object.php, standard table-level access controls are also bypassed. This allows a complete takeover of platform functionality by reconfiguring payment processors, authentication providers, cloud storage credentials, and more. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the User_Location plugin's testIP.php page reflects the ip request parameter directly into an HTML input element without applying htmlspecialchars() or any other output encoding. This allows an attacker to inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript via a crafted URL. Although the page is restricted to admin users, AVideo's SameSite=None cookie configuration allows cross-origin exploitation, meaning an attacker can lure an admin to a malicious link that executes JavaScript in their authenticated session. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo admin panel renders plugin configuration values in HTML forms without applying htmlspecialchars() or any other output encoding. The jsonToFormElements() function in admin/functions.php directly interpolates user-controlled values into textarea contents, option elements, and input attributes. An attacker who can set a plugin configuration value (either as a compromised admin or by chaining with CSRF on admin/save.json.php) can inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes whenever any administrator visits the plugin configuration page. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the SocialMediaPublisher plugin exposes a publishInstagram.json.php endpoint that acts as an unauthenticated proxy to the Facebook/Instagram Graph API. The endpoint accepts user-controlled parameters including an access token, container ID, and Instagram account ID, and passes them directly to the Graph API via InstagramUploader::publishMediaIfIsReady(). This allows any unauthenticated user to make arbitrary Graph API calls through the server, potentially using stolen tokens or abusing the platform's own credentials.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the Live restream log callback flow accepted an attacker-controlled restreamerURL and later fetched that stored URL server-side, enabling stored SSRF for authenticated streamers. The vulnerable flow allowed a low-privilege user with streaming permission to store an arbitrary callback URL and trigger server-side requests to loopback or internal HTTP services through the restream log feature.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, objects/aVideoEncoder.json.php still allows attacker-controlled downloadURL values with common media or archive extensions such as .mp4, .mp3, .zip, .jpg, .png, .gif, and .webm to bypass SSRF validation. The server then fetches the response and stores it as media content. This allows an authenticated uploader to turn the upload-by-URL flow into a reliable SSRF response-exfiltration primitive. The vulnerability is caused by an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-27732.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo endpoint objects/pluginSwitch.json.php allows administrators to enable or disable any installed plugin. The endpoint checks for an active admin session but does not validate a CSRF token. Additionally, the plugins database table is explicitly listed in ignoreTableSecurityCheck(), which means the ORM-level Referer/Origin domain validation in ObjectYPT::save() is also bypassed. Combined with SameSite=None on session cookies, an attacker can disable critical security plugins (such as LoginControl for 2FA, subscription enforcement, or access control plugins) by luring an admin to a malicious page. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, AVideo's EPG (Electronic Program Guide) feature parses XML from user-controlled URLs and renders programme titles directly into HTML without any sanitization or escaping. A user with upload permission can set a video's epg_link to a malicious XML file whose <title> elements contain JavaScript. This payload executes in the browser of any unauthenticated visitor to the public EPG page, enabling session hijacking and account takeover.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, objects/mention.json.php has no User::loginCheck() or admin gate. It only has an entry guard: preg_match('/^@/', $_REQUEST['term']) and hard-coded rowCount=10. This enables unauthenticated user enumeration.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the PayPal IPN v1 handler at plugin/PayPalYPT/ipn.php lacks transaction deduplication, allowing an attacker to replay a single legitimate IPN notification to repeatedly inflate their wallet balance and renew subscriptions. The newer ipnV2.php and webhook.php handlers correctly deduplicate via PayPalYPT_log entries, but the v1 handler was never updated and remains actively referenced as the notify_url for billing plans.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, AVideo stores category descriptions from user input and later renders category_description as raw HTML in the Gallery view. A user who can create or edit categories can store JavaScript in a category description, which executes when another user views the affected Gallery/category page. This is a stored XSS in the category description field, separate from previously fixed XSS issues in video titles or comments.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the AVideo endpoint objects/emailAllUsers.json.php allows administrators to send HTML emails to every registered user on the platform. While the endpoint verifies admin session status, it does not validate a CSRF token. Because AVideo sets SameSite=None on session cookies, a cross-origin POST request from an attacker-controlled page will include the admin's session cookie automatically. An attacker who lures an admin to a malicious page can send an arbitrary HTML email to every user on the platform, appearing to originate from the instance's legitimate SMTP address. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, EpgParser.php, plugin/AI/receiveAsync.json.php, and other locations do not use the $resolvedIP out-param of isSSRFSafeURL() for DNS pinning via CURLOPT_RESOLVE, opening DNS-rebinding TOCTOU.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, there is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability. The Live plugin's "YouTube-style" view renders the live transmission's stream key into an HTML class attribute by raw echo, without htmlspecialchars(). A canStream user can persist a key containing " plus an event handler via plugin/Live/saveLive.php, and any visitor (logged in or anonymous) opening the stream's live page executes attacker JavaScript in the platform origin.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the player skin configuration endpoint at admin/playerUpdate.json.php does not validate CSRF tokens. The plugins table is explicitly excluded from the ORM's domain-based security check via ignoreTableSecurityCheck(), removing the only other layer of defense. Combined with SameSite=None cookies, a cross-origin POST can modify the video player appearance on the entire platform.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, plugin/AuthorizeNet/processPayment.json.php credits the logged-in user's wallet based only on the attacker-controlled amount POST parameter. The endpoint contains a TODO for real Authorize.Net charging, hardcodes $paymentSuccess = true, and then calls YPTWallet::addBalance() without validating any Authorize.Net transaction, webhook signature, hosted payment token, nonce, or server-side payment record. This allows any logged-in user to add arbitrary funds to their own AVideo wallet when the AuthorizeNet and YPTWallet plugins are enabled.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the site customization endpoint at admin/customize_settings_nativeUpdate.json.php lacks CSRF token validation and writes uploaded logo files to disk before the ORM's domain-based security check executes. Combined with SameSite=None cookie policy, a cross-origin POST can overwrite the platform's logo with attacker-controlled content.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In 29.0 and earlier, there is a cross-site request forgery vulnerability on the 2FA toggle. plugin/LoginControl/set.json.php accepts POST type=set2FA value=false, calls LoginControl::setUser2FA(User::getId(), false) on the session-authenticated user, and returns. There is no forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest() call, no isTokenValid() check, no X-CSRF-Token/SameSite enforcement, and no re-authentication step. A cross-origin page that the victim visits while logged into the AVideo dashboard issues the POST via a hidden form (or fetch without credentials:"omit") and disables the victim's 2FA in one request.
