Exploitation Conditions

Requires an authenticated account holding video-upload permission on the AVideo instance (PR:L) - not exploitable by fully anonymous users. The attacker stores an HTML entity-encoded payload in the video 'trailer1' field, which specifically bypasses the isValidURL() input validation and is later HTML-decoded by the browser inside an inline onclick JavaScript string context, breaking out of the string. Exploitation additionally requires a victim (any visitor, including an administrator) to view the affected video page (UI:P/UI:R), so it is not zero-interaction. Impact is limited to the victim's browser session; there is no direct server compromise. Affected: AVideo versions 0 through ≤29.1.1.

Impact

This is a genuine but moderate-severity issue best characterized as a high-CVSS-adjacent but real-risk-moderate stored XSS. The vendor CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.1 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N - network-reachable, low complexity, but requiring low privileges (an account with video upload permission) and passive victim interaction (a visitor merely viewing the affected video page). All confidentiality/integrity impacts are rated Low and availability is None, consistent with a script-injection class flaw rather than direct server compromise. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC are present in the supplied intelligence, so exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis' - this is not confirmed in-the-wild activity. The signals are internally consistent: low-privilege authenticated attacker, victim interaction needed, limited technical impact. The 'RCE' tag in the input conflicts with the description, which describes browser-side JavaScript execution ('arbitrary code in any visitor's session'), NOT server-side remote code execution - the tag is misleading. Net priority is low-to-medium: the meaningful escalation is that a low-privileged uploader can hijack an administrator's session when the admin views the video, providing a path to admin-account takeover, but this depends on admin interaction and is not automatable at scale.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker registers or obtains an account with video-upload permission on an AVideo instance and stores an HTML entity-encoded payload in the video 'trailer1' field, which bypasses isValidURL() validation. When any visitor - including an administrator - loads the video page, the browser decodes the entities, breaking out of the inline onclick JavaScript string and executing attacker-controlled script in the victim's authenticated session. No public exploit code is identified, but the payload construction is straightforward for someone familiar with HTML-entity encoding.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 26, 2026

Stored cross-site scripting in AVideo versions 0 through 29.1.1 allows authenticated users with video-upload permission to inject HTML entity-encoded payloads into the trailer1 field, which bypasses input validation and executes arbitrary JavaScript in the browser of any visitor, including administrators, when they view the affected video page. Exploitation requires victim interaction and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the vulnerability can lead to session hijacking and defacement, making it a moderate risk.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; monitor the GitHub security advisory GHSA-v7vx-v9q9-qhw3 for the fixed version. As a temporary mitigation, restrict video-upload permissions to trusted users only, or disable the trailer1 feature if it is not essential-though this may reduce functionality. Additionally, implement a Content Security Policy (CSP) that disallows inline JavaScript execution to mitigate the impact of stored XSS, but this may require adjustments to other application scripts. Ensure input validation properly handles HTML entity decoding before validation. No public exploit code exists at time of analysis, but the moderate severity warrants prompt action. For more information, consult the GitHub advisory and VulnCheck advisory.

Technical ContextAI · show details

AVideo is an open-source video sharing platform (WWBN AVideo) affected by a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability classified as CWE-79. The flaw resides in the trailer1 field, which is rendered without proper sanitization inside an inline onclick JavaScript string. Attackers can store payloads encoded with HTML entities that evade the isValidURL() validation routine; when the browser decodes these entities, the payload breaks out of the JavaScript string context and executes arbitrary code. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:wwbn:avideo:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates that all versions are potentially affected, with EUVD confirming versions 0 through 29.1.1. While tags include 'RCE', the impact is client-side script execution in the victim's browser session, not server-side remote code execution. This vulnerability was reported by VulnCheck and assigned ENISA EUVD ID EUVD-2026-87724.

DescriptionCVE.org

AVideo contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the video trailer1 field rendered unsanitized within an inline onclick JavaScript string. Attackers with video upload permission can store HTML entity-encoded payloads that bypass isValidURL() validation and are decoded by the browser to break out of the JavaScript string, executing arbitrary code in any visitor's session including administrators.
