Unauthenticated Reflected XSS via innerHTML in AVideo
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 25.0 and below, there is a reflected XSS vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser. User input from a URL parameter flows through PHP's json_encode() into a JavaScript function that renders it via innerHTML, bypassing encoding and achieving full script execution. The vulnerability is caused by two issues working together: unescaped user input passed to JavaScript (videoNotFound.php), and innerHTML rendering HTML tags as executable DOM (script.js). The attack can be escalated to steal session cookies, take over accounts, p
WWBN AVideo - Unauthenticated IDOR - Playlist Information Disclosure
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to 25.0, the /objects/playlistsFromUser.json.php endpoint returns all playlists for any user without requiring authentication or authorization. An unauthenticated attacker can enumerate user IDs and retrieve playlist information including playlist names, video IDs, and playlist status for any user on the platform. This vulnerability is fixed in 25.0.

WWBN AVideo: Unauthenticated SQL Injection via JSON Request Bypass in objects/videos.json.php
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 24.0, an unauthenticated SQL Injection vulnerability exists in AVideo within the objects/videos.json.php and objects/video.php components. The application fails to properly sanitize the catName parameter when it is supplied via a JSON-formatted POST request body. Because JSON input is parsed and merged into $_REQUEST after global security checks are executed, the payload bypasses the existing sanitization mechanisms. This issue has been patched in version 24.0.
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.
WWBN AVideo: Unauthenticated PHP session store exposed to host network via published memcached port
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 24.0, the official docker-compose.yml publishes the memcached service on host port 11211 (0.0.0.0:11211) with no authentication, while the Dockerfile configures PHP to store all user sessions in that memcached instance. An attacker who can reach port 11211 can read, modify, or flush session data — enabling session hijacking, admin impersonation, and mass session destruction without any application-level authentication. This issue has been patched in version 24.0.
AVideo has Authenticated Server-Side Request Forgery via downloadURL in aVideoEncoder.json.php
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 22.0, the `aVideoEncoder.json.php` API endpoint accepts a `downloadURL` parameter and fetches the referenced resource server-side without proper validation or an allow-list. This allows authenticated users to trigger server-side requests to arbitrary URLs (including internal network endpoints). An authenticated attacker can leverage SSRF to interact with internal services and retrieve sensitive data (e.g., internal APIs, metadata services), potentially leading to further compromise depending on the deployment environment. This issue has been fixed in AVideo version 22.0.
AVideo has Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Markdown Comment Injection
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 21.0, AVideo allows Markdown in video comments and uses Parsedown (v1.7.4) without Safe Mode enabled. Markdown links are not sufficiently sanitized, allowing `javascript:` URIs to be rendered as clickable links. An authenticated low-privilege attacker can post a malicious comment that injects persistent JavaScript. When another user clicks the link, the attacker can perform actions such as session hijacking, privilege escalation (including admin takeover), and data exfiltration. Version 21.0 contains a fix. As a workaround, validate and block unsafe URI schemes (e.g., `javascript:
A recovery notification bypass vulnerability exists in the userRecoverPass.php captcha validation functionality of WWBN AVideo dev master commit 15fed957fb. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to the silent creation of a recovery pass code for any user.
A login attempt restriction bypass vulnerability exists in the checkLoginAttempts functionality of WWBN AVideo dev master commit 15fed957fb. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to captcha bypass, which can be abused by an attacker to brute force user credentials. An attacker can send a series of HTTP requests to trigger this vulnerability.
An insufficient entropy vulnerability exists in the salt generation functionality of WWBN AVideo dev master commit 15fed957fb. A specially crafted series of HTTP requests can lead to privilege escalation. An attacker can gather system information via HTTP requests and brute force the salt offline, leading to forging a legitimate password recovery code for the admin user.
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 12.4 and prior, a command injection vulnerability exists at `plugin/CloneSite/cloneClient.json.php` which allows Remote Code Execution if you CloneSite Plugin. This is a bypass to the fix for CVE-2023-30854, which affects WWBN AVideo up to version 12.3. This issue is patched in commit 1df4af01f80d56ff2c4c43b89d0bac151e7fb6e3.
WWBN/AVideo stored XSS vulnerability leads to takeover of any user's account, including admin's account
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In AVideo prior to version 12.4, a normal user can make a Meeting Schedule where the user can invite another user in that Meeting, but it does not properly sanitize the malicious characters when creating a Meeting Room. This allows attacker to insert malicious scripts. Since any USER including the ADMIN can see the meeting room that was created by the attacker this can lead to cookie hijacking and takeover of any accounts. Version 12.4 contains a patch for this issue.
AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 12.4, an OS Command Injection vulnerability in an authenticated endpoint `/plugin/CloneSite/cloneClient.json.php` allows attackers to achieve Remote Code Execution. This issue is fixed in version 12.4.
Description:
While making an account in demo.avideo.com I found a parameter "?success=" which did not sanitize any symbol character properly which leads to XSS attack.
Impact:
Since there's an Admin account on demo.avideo.com attacker can use this attack to Takeover the admin's account
Step to Reproduce:
1. Click the link below
[https://demo.avideo.com/user?success="><img](https://demo.avideo.com/user?success=%22%3E%3Cimg) src=x onerror=alert(document.cookie)>
2. Then XSS will be executed
OS injection vulnerability in World Wide Broadcast Network AVideo version before 12.4, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via the video link field to the Embed a video link feature.
Open redirect vulnerability in objects/login.json.php in WWBN AVideo through 11.6, allows attackers to arbitrarily redirect users from a crafted url to the login page.
