| Impact | This vulnerability presents a moderate-to-high real-world risk despite the CVSS 6.5 score (Medium). The CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) indicates network accessibility, low attack complexity, and only low privilege requirement (authenticated user), making exploitation trivial for any authenticated user without user interaction. The confidentiality impact is high: attackers gain unauthorized access to other users' video content and can trigger authentication to third-party AI providers (Google Gemini, OpenAI) using stolen task credentials, potentially enabling lateral movement or credential harvesting. The missing authorization check is a single function call—a critical control point—suggesting the vulnerability is easily discoverable and likely already known or exploited within security research communities. The availability of a vendor patch (version 0.11.4-alpha.2) and documented commit (50ec2bac6b341e651fc9ac4344e3bd2cdaeafdbd) indicates rapid remediation, but the alpha versioning suggests this may be a less mature product with potentially slower adoption of security updates. Without confirmed KEV status or active exploitation data, this remains a high-priority issue for any organization using New API in multi-tenant environments, particularly those handling sensitive video data or relying on integrated AI provider access. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with valid credentials to New API observes or guesses a task_id belonging to another user (e.g., task_id 12345). The attacker crafts a simple GET request to /v1/videos/12345/content and receives the video content and associated AI provider credentials for that task without any authorization challenge. The attacker then uses the stolen credentials to authenticate directly to Google Gemini or OpenAI on behalf of the legitimate task owner, enabling them to perform API calls at the victim's quota or cost. Because the endpoint requires only authentication (not authorization), any user account—including low-privilege accounts—can perform this attack at scale across all task_ids in the system. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 23, 2026
An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability exists in New API versions prior to 0.11.4-alpha.2, a large language model gateway and AI asset management system. Authenticated users can bypass authorization checks on the video proxy endpoint (GET /v1/videos/:task_id/content) to access video content belonging to other users and cause the server to authenticate to upstream AI providers (Google Gemini, OpenAI) using credentials derived from tasks they do not own. The vulnerability stems from a single unguarded function call that queries tasks by task_id alone without validating user ownership, contrasting sharply with all other task-lookup functions in the codebase that properly enforce ownership checks.
RemediationAI
Upgrade New API to version 0.11.4-alpha.2 or later immediately, which contains the authorization bypass patch. Verify the patch by checking commit 50ec2bac6b341e651fc9ac4344e3bd2cdaeafdbd in the repository (https://github.com/QuantumNous/new-api/commit/50ec2bac6b341e651fc9ac4344e3bd2cdaeafdbd). As an interim mitigation prior to patching, implement network-level access controls restricting the video proxy endpoint (GET /v1/videos/:task_id/content) to trusted clients or disable the endpoint if not in use. Additionally, audit access logs for the affected endpoint to identify any unauthorized task_id access patterns, and consider rotating AI provider credentials (Google Gemini, OpenAI API keys) if the system handles sensitive workloads. Implement application-level rate limiting and monitoring on the video proxy endpoint to detect anomalous access patterns that may indicate exploitation attempts.

Technical ContextAI · show details
New API (cpe:2.3:a:quantumnous:new-api:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is an LLM gateway and AI asset management platform that proxies requests to upstream AI providers. The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), a classic authorization flaw where the application trusts client-supplied identifiers without validating ownership. The affected endpoint uses the function model.GetByOnlyTaskId(taskID) which queries the database by task_id parameter alone, whereas the security-correct pattern used elsewhere in the codebase is model.GetByTaskId(userId, taskID), which includes both the user context and task identifier. This inconsistency allows an attacker to construct requests with arbitrary task_id values, bypassing the intended multi-tenant isolation and gaining access to video content and associated provider credentials not belonging to them.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionGitHub Advisory
New API is a large language mode (LLM) gateway and artificial intelligence (AI) asset management system. Prior to version 0.11.4-alpha.2, an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability in the video proxy endpoint (GET /v1/videos/:task_id/content) allows any authenticated user to access video content belonging to other users and causes the server to authenticate to upstream AI providers (Google Gemini, OpenAI) using credentials derived from tasks they do not own. The missing authorization check is a single function call - model.GetByOnlyTaskId(taskID) queries by task_id alone with no user_id filter, while every other task-lookup in the codebase enforces ownership via model.GetByTaskId(userId, taskID). Version 0.11.4-alpha.2 contains a patch.
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using New API should be aware of notable risk from CVE-2026-30886, a IDOR vulnerability rated CVSS 6.5. Exploitation could compromise the security of affected deployments. Organizations should apply vendor updates when available and monitor for exploitation.
Apply vendor patch. If patching is delayed: restrict network access and enable monitoring.
