AI-suggested
Users should monitor the vendor's communications for updates. Until a fix is released, restricting API access to trusted users and minimizing the number of low-privilege authenticated accounts may reduce exposure risk.
Description
AVideo through revision c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 (master, 2026-08-23) incompletely sanitizes sensitive user fields in the APIName=video response. Video rows include columns joined from the video owner's user record, and API::get_api_video() calls removeSensitiveUserFields() only when the caller is neither authenticated nor using a valid API secret; it never compares User::getId() with the row's users_id. As a result, any low-privilege authenticated account can request another user's video and receive the owner's email address, account name (user), and isAdmin, canUpload and canStream flags, which are removed for guests and should be returned only to the owner or to callers with a valid API secret. No patched version was available at the time of the advisory.
Impact
This vulnerability allows low-privilege authenticated users to access private personal information of other users, including email addresses and account privilege flags. This exposure can lead to privacy violations and potential misuse of user data. The CVSS 4.0 score is 5.3 (medium severity), reflecting the network attack vector, low attack complexity, no user interaction required, and limited confidentiality impact.
Summary
In WWBN AVideo (revision c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1), the API method get_api_video() returns video data joined with the video owner's user record. The function removeSensitiveUserFields() is called only when the caller is unauthenticated or lacks a valid API secret, but it does not verify if the caller's user ID matches the video owner's user ID. Consequently, low-privilege authenticated users can retrieve sensitive fields such as the owner's email, username, and privilege flags (isAdmin, canUpload, canStream) for videos they do not own. These fields are intended to be hidden from guests and unauthorized users. No official fix or patch was available at the time of publication.
