AVideo has PHP Code Injection via eval() in Gallery saveSort.json.php Exploitable Through CSRF Against Admin
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the Gallery plugin's `saveSort.json.php` endpoint passes unsanitized user input from `$_REQUEST['sections']` array values directly into PHP's `eval()` function. While the endpoint is gated behind `User::isAdmin()`, it has no CSRF token validation. Combined with AVideo's explicit `SameSite=None` session cookie configuration, an attacker can exploit this via cross-site request forgery to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution — requiring only that an admin visits an attacker-controlled page.

AVideo Multi-Chain Attack: Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution via Clone Key Disclosure, Database Dump, and Command Injection
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, multiple vulnerabilities in AVideo's CloneSite plugin chain together to allow a completely unauthenticated attacker to achieve remote code execution. The `clones.json.php` endpoint exposes clone secret keys without authentication, which can be used to trigger a full database dump via `cloneServer.json.php`. The dump contains admin password hashes stored as MD5, which are trivially crackable. With admin access, the attacker exploits an OS command injection in the rsync command construction in `cloneClient.json.php` to execute arbitrary system commands. Commit c
AVideo has an authenticated arbitrary local file read via `chunkFile` path injection in `aVideoEncoder.json.php`
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 t
AVideo has an Unauthenticated SQL Injection via `doNotShowCats` Parameter (Backslash Escape Bypass)
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.
AVideo has Unauthenticated SSRF via `webSiteRootURL` Parameter in saveDVR.json.php, Chaining to Verification Bypass
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: Authenticated Remote Code Execution via Unsafe Plugin ZIP Extraction
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 24.0, an authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability was identified in AVideo related to the plugin upload/import functionality. The issue allowed an authenticated administrator to upload a specially crafted ZIP archive containing executable server-side files. Due to insufficient validation of extracted file contents, the archive was extracted directly into a web-accessible plugin directory, allowing arbitrary PHP code execution. This issue has been patched in version 24.0.
