Description
AVideo through commit c91b5975d contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the EPG parser that allows authenticated uploaders to fetch arbitrary internal URLs. An attacker can supply an internal URL via the epg_link parameter during video upload, which is validated only for syntax and later fetched server-side during EPG generation without SSRF protection checks.

AI Analysis

Impact

A Server‑Side Request Forgery vulnerability exists in AVideo, triggered by the epg_link parameter during video upload. Authenticated uploaders can supply any internal URL; the parameter is only syntactically validated and later fetched without SSRF protection. A successful exploit allows the attacker to read arbitrary internal resources, potentially exposing sensitive configuration data, internal services, or compromising system integrity, as the attacker can reach any internal endpoint the server can access. The weakness is identified as CWE‑918.

Affected Systems

The affected product is AVideo from WWBN. The vulnerability exists in versions up to the commit c91b5975d. No precise version numbers are listed, so all releases before the vendor’s fix are considered at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.1 indicates a high‑severity threat. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalogue, suggesting no widespread exploitation yet. However, because only authenticated uploaders can trigger the flaw, the attack requires legitimate credentials. Given the lack of SSRF defenses, a determined attacker with upload access can enumerate internal endpoints and retrieve data, making the risk significant for organizations that expose AVideo to untrusted users.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update AVideo to the latest patched version that includes SSRF mitigation in the EPG parser.
  • Limit uploader role privileges to reduce opportunity for malicious URL injection.
  • Configure network segmentation or firewall rules to block internal URL access from user‑submitted parameters.
