Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 27 Mar 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Until an official patch is released, organizations should implement several specific mitigations: 1) Restrict network access to the RTMP publish authentication endpoints to trusted IP addresses or VPNs to reduce exposure. 2) Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the stream key parameter. 3) Monitor application logs and database query logs for anomalous or unexpected SQL queries indicative of injection attempts. 4) Consider disabling or limiting RTMP publishing features if not essential, or replace with alternative authentication mechanisms. 5) Conduct thorough code reviews and testing to identify any other unparameterized SQL queries in the application. 6) Prepare for rapid patch deployment once WWBN releases an official fix by maintaining an up-to-date inventory of affected systems. 7) Educate development teams on secure coding practices, emphasizing parameterized queries and input validation to prevent similar vulnerabilities.

Description

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the `Live_schedule::keyExists()` method constructs a SQL query by interpolating a stream key directly into the query string without parameterization. This method is called as a fallback from `LiveTransmition::keyExists()` when the initial parameterized lookup returns no results. Although the calling function correctly uses parameterized queries for its own lookup, the fallback path to `Live_schedule::keyExists()` undoes this protection entirely. This vulnerability is distinct from GHSA-pvw4-p2jm-chjm, which covers SQL injection via the `live_schedule_id` parameter in the reminder function. This finding targets the stream key lookup path used during RTMP publish authentication. As of time of publication, no patched versions are available.

Impact

The impact of CVE-2026-34374 is severe for organizations using WWBN AVideo as it allows unauthenticated remote attackers to perform SQL injection attacks via the stream key lookup during RTMP publish authentication. Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive data stored in the backend database, including user credentials, stream metadata, and potentially other confidential information. Attackers may also alter or delete data, undermining data integrity and trustworthiness. Although availability impact is rated low, the compromise of authentication mechanisms can facilitate further attacks or unauthorized streaming. This vulnerability could lead to reputational damage, regulatory non-compliance, and financial losses for affected organizations. Given the widespread use of AVideo in content delivery and streaming platforms, the threat extends to media companies, educational institutions, and enterprises relying on video streaming. The absence of a patch increases exposure time, raising the risk of exploitation as attackers develop proof-of-concept or weaponized exploits.

CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #2OWASP Top 10 A05:2025: Injection (opens in a new tab)
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Architecture and Design · Parameterization
If available, use structured mechanisms that automatically enforce the separation between data and code. These mechanisms may be able to provide the relevant quoting, encoding, and validation automatically, instead of relying on the developer to provide this capability at every point where output is generated.
Architecture and Design · Operation · Environment Hardening
Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment.
