CVE-2026-91967: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in WWBN AVideo
AVideo through 29.0 contains a blind server-side request forgery vulnerability in the getHeaderContentTypeFromURL function that issues get_headers() calls guarded only by format validation. Authenticated users with canUpload permission can store attacker-chosen URLs as video links, triggering vulnerable function execution on every video watch page render to probe internal hosts using content-type oracles and timing-based detection.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-91967 is a blind SSRF vulnerability in WWBN AVideo through version 29.0. The issue exists in the getHeaderContentTypeFromURL function, which performs get_headers() calls on URLs provided by authenticated users with canUpload permission. These calls are only guarded by format validation, allowing attackers to supply malicious URLs that trigger server-side requests when video watch pages are rendered. This can be exploited to probe internal network hosts by observing content-type responses or timing differences. The vulnerability does not require user interaction beyond upload permissions and has no known exploits in the wild.
Potential Impact
An attacker with authenticated canUpload permissions can leverage this SSRF vulnerability to make the server issue HTTP requests to arbitrary internal or external hosts. This can be used to gather information about internal network services or hosts that are not directly accessible to the attacker. The vulnerability does not escalate privileges or directly disclose sensitive data but can aid in further reconnaissance or chained attacks.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict canUpload permissions to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious URL uploads. Avoid exposing internal services that could be probed via SSRF. Follow vendor updates for official patches or mitigations.
