Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026
Memcached session storage exposure in AVideo prior to version 24.0 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read, modify, or delete user sessions by accessing the publicly exposed memcached service on port 11211. An attacker with network access to this port can hijack admin accounts, impersonate users, or destroy all active sessions without any authentication. This affects the official Docker deployment configuration for PHP, Docker, and AVideo products.

DescriptionGitHub Advisory
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.
Executive ViewAI
WWBN AVideo installations prior to version 24.0 expose an unauthenticated memcached service that stores all user sessions, allowing attackers with network access to hijack admin accounts, impersonate users, and destroy sessions at scale. This critical configuration flaw directly threatens user account security and platform availability for any organization running affected versions.
Restrict inbound access to port 11211 via firewall rules to only internal application servers; disable public/untrusted network routes to memcached; implement network segmentation to isolate the memcached service; monitor port 11211 for unauthorized connection attempts; force session re-authentication after deployment; consider temporary disabling of memcached and switching to secure session storage (database with encryption) until patching is completed.
