Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that the victim be an authenticated AVideo administrator with an active, valid session cookie - standard user accounts are insufficient. The attacker must socially engineer this specific admin into visiting an attacker-controlled web page while logged in, after which the browser's automatic cookie inclusion completes the forged request. The site's outbound email functionality (sendEmail.json.php) must be operational and configured with valid SMTP credentials for the attack to produce delivered mail. Exploitation is limited to environments where the AVideo contact-email feature is enabled and reachable; deployments that have disabled or firewalled this endpoint are not affected.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N, score 5.3) accurately reflects a moderate-severity issue gated entirely on social engineering: the attacker needs no credentials of their own but must induce an authenticated admin to visit a malicious page. This user-interaction dependency (UI:P) substantially limits automated mass exploitation. No EPSS data was provided in the input; CISA KEV status is absent; no public proof-of-concept code has been identified at time of analysis. The score is appropriate - this is not a high-urgency patch-now issue for most operators, but the email authentication bypass (SPF/DKIM/DMARC pass-through) elevates real-world harm beyond a typical low-impact CSRF, specifically for operators concerned with domain reputation and phishing abuse. No CVSS scoring conflicts or inconsistencies were identified in the provided data.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a hidden HTML form on a malicious web page targeting sendEmail.json.php with attacker-chosen subject, body text, and recipient email addresses. When an AVideo administrator visits the page while holding an active authenticated session, the browser silently submits the forged POST request; the server processes it, bypassing origin and captcha checks, and sends the email from the platform's configured contact address. Recipients receive a message bearing the site's domain with full SPF/DKIM/DMARC authentication, making it suitable for credential phishing or brand impersonation campaigns.

AnalysisAI

Cross-site request forgery in WWBN AVideo's sendEmail.json.php endpoint enables network-based abuse of an authenticated administrator's session to dispatch arbitrary emails from the site's legitimate contact address. When an admin is tricked into visiting a malicious page while logged in, the attacker controls the email subject, body, and recipient list - and because the server sends the message itself, it passes SPF/DKIM/DMARC authentication, making it a viable phishing and brand impersonation vector. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; exploitation is constrained by the requirement for admin user interaction.

RemediationAI

Administrators should consult the GitHub Security Advisory (https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/security/advisories/GHSA-7h9v-f3gg-r3mq) and apply any patch or updated release published by WWBN; no specific fixed version was confirmed in the available intelligence, so the WWBN AVideo release page should be monitored for a patched build. As compensating controls pending a patch: restrict or block direct access to sendEmail.json.php at the web server or WAF level (trade-off: disables the contact-email feature for all users); enforce SameSite=Strict on admin session cookies to prevent cross-origin form submissions (trade-off: may break certain legitimate cross-site admin flows); and add an explicit CSRF token to the sendEmail endpoint if the platform allows custom middleware. If the email-sending feature is not operationally required, disabling it entirely eliminates the attack surface.

Technical ContextAI · show details

WWBN AVideo (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:wwbn:avideo:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is an open-source PHP-based video streaming and sharing platform. The flaw is rooted in CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery): the sendEmail.json.php endpoint fails to enforce proper request-origin validation, allowing forged cross-origin form submissions to bypass both CSRF origin checks and captcha verification. Because the email is dispatched server-side using the platform's configured mail credentials, the resulting message inherits the domain's email authentication envelope - SPF alignment, DKIM signature, and DMARC policy - making the forged email indistinguishable from legitimate site correspondence to recipient mail systems.

DescriptionCVE.org

WWBN AVideo contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in sendEmail.json.php that allows authenticated administrators to send mail from the site's contact address by bypassing origin checks and captcha validation. Attackers can craft a malicious web page that, when visited by an authenticated admin, sends emails with attacker-controlled subject and body to arbitrary recipients, passing SPF/DKIM/DMARC validation for phishing and brand impersonation attacks.
