MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Collection, Discovery The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation against default configurations of WWBN AVideo. The endpoint videosAndroid.json.php is accessible via a standard GET request with no authentication token, session cookie, or API key required. Exploitation is limited to AVideo instances that are network-reachable to the attacker (internet-facing or within the attacker's network segment). The impact is bounded to video metadata and owner account fields (email, lastLogin, filename, hashId); code execution and write access are not achievable through this vector alone. Password-protected video content files themselves are not directly retrieved - only their metadata is exposed. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9 (VC:L, no integrity or availability impact) accurately characterizes this as a moderate-severity privacy/information-disclosure issue rather than a critical system-compromise vector. The AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N metrics indicate the attack is entirely trivial - an unauthenticated GET request with no special conditions - meaning automated scraping at scale is feasible for any internet-facing AVideo instance. The confidentiality impact is correctly rated Low (VC:L) because exposure is bounded to video metadata and owner account details rather than credential hashes, session tokens, or file system content. No EPSS score was provided in the input data, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified precisely. No KEV listing and no confirmed public POC, reducing urgency relative to actively exploited issues. The meaningful risk profile is: PII harvesting (owner emails, login timestamps) across publicly accessible instances, and partial deanonymization of video owners who expected password protection to conceal their identity. Installations handling sensitive or private video content face the greatest exposure. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker identifies a publicly accessible AVideo instance and sends an unauthenticated HTTP GET request to /videosAndroid.json.php. The endpoint returns a JSON payload listing password-protected videos along with owner email addresses, last login timestamps, filenames, and hashIds, exposing PII for all video owners on the platform without any credential or session requirement. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 12, 2026
Unauthenticated information disclosure in WWBN AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 exposes password-protected video metadata to anonymous remote attackers via a missing authorization check on the videosAndroid.json.php endpoint. Any unauthenticated guest can retrieve sensitive owner data - including email addresses, last login timestamps, filenames, and hashIds - with a trivial GET request, bypassing the password-protection intent entirely. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the zero-authentication, zero-complexity attack surface makes opportunistic mass harvesting straightforward.
RemediationAI
Apply the fix described in GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-frrh-5hwx-jggr (https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/security/advisories/GHSA-frrh-5hwx-jggr), which addresses the missing authorization on the videosAndroid.json.php endpoint. An exact patched release version is not confirmed in the available input data; administrators should update to a commit after c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 once a tagged release is published. As an immediate compensating control, restrict access to videosAndroid.json.php at the web server or reverse proxy layer - for example via Nginx location deny rules or Apache mod_authz - requiring valid session authentication before the request reaches PHP. Note that this workaround may break Android client functionality for legitimate users if not paired with a pass-through for authenticated sessions. If the Android client feature is not in use, disabling or removing the endpoint entirely eliminates the attack surface with no functional impact.

Technical ContextAI · show details
WWBN AVideo is a PHP-based self-hosted video sharing platform (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:wwbn:avideo:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The affected endpoint, videosAndroid.json.php, is designed to serve video listings to Android clients and returns JSON-structured metadata. The root cause is CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) as catalogued, though the underlying mechanism is more precisely CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): the endpoint performs no caller identity or session validation before returning data. The response includes owner PII (email address, lastLogin), content identifiers (filename, hashId), and password-protected video listings - data that should be gated behind at minimum session or token authentication. The CVSS 4.0 vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L reflects a fully network-exploitable, zero-friction exposure with limited but real confidentiality impact.

DescriptionCVE.org
WWBN AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 fails to properly authorize access to the videosAndroid.json.php endpoint, allowing unauthenticated guests to list password-protected videos with sensitive owner information. Attackers can retrieve video metadata including owner email, lastLogin, filename, and hashId by sending an unauthenticated GET request to the endpoint.
