CVE-2026-40908: CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in WWBN AVideo
WWBN AVideo versions 29. 0 and earlier contain a vulnerability where the file git. json. php exposes sensitive information to unauthenticated users by executing 'git log -1' and returning its output as JSON. This disclosure reveals the exact deployed commit hash, developer names and email addresses, and commit messages that may reference internal systems or security fixes. No patched versions are currently available for this issue. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5. 3, indicating medium severity, and does not require user interaction or privileges to exploit.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-40908 is an information exposure vulnerability in WWBN AVideo (<= 29.0) where the web root file git.json.php executes the command 'git log -1' and returns the full output to any unauthenticated user. This output includes the deployed commit hash, developer PII (names and emails), and commit messages that may contain sensitive internal references. This enables attackers to fingerprint the software version and gather potentially sensitive information. No official patch or remediation is currently available.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to obtain sensitive information including the exact software commit hash, developer personal information, and commit messages. This information can aid attackers in version fingerprinting and potentially reveal internal details or security fixes, which may facilitate further targeted attacks. There is no direct impact on integrity or availability reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider restricting access to the git.json.php file or removing it from public web root to prevent unauthorized information disclosure.
