How to Fix CVE-2026-35449

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected AVideo dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

wwbn/avideo fixed: Latest secure release
Upgrade wwbn/avideo to Latest secure release
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for wwbn/avideo

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-35449, inspect your project dependencies for AVideo:

inspect dependencies for wwbn/avideo

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of AVideo in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor, where the product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. In AVideo, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

## Summary The `install/test.php` diagnostic script has its CLI-only access guard disabled by commenting out the `die()` statement. The script remains accessible via HTTP after installation, exposing video viewer statistics including IP addresses, session IDs, and user agents to unauthenticated visitors. ## Details The disabled guard at `install/test.php:5-7`: ```php if (!isCommandLineInterface()) { //return die('Command Line only'); } ``` The script also enables verbose error reporting: ```php error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors', '1'); ``` It then queries `VideoStatistic::getLastStatistics()` and outputs the result via `var_dump()`: ```php $resp = VideoStatistic::getLastStatistics(getVideos_id(), User::getId()); var_dump($resp); ``` The `VideoStatistic` object contains: `ip` (viewer IP address), `session_id`, `user_agent`, `users_id`, and JSON metadata. The `display_errors=1` setting also leaks internal filesystem paths in any PHP warnings. The `install/` directory is not restricted by `.htaccess` (it only disables directory listing via `Options -Indexes`) and no web server rules block access to individual PHP files in this directory. ## Proof of Concept ```bash # Request viewer stats for video ID 1 curl "https://your-avideo-instance.com/install/test.php?videos_id=1" ``` Confirmed accessible on live AVideo instances (HTTP 200). ## Impact Unauthenticated disclosure of viewer IP addresses (PII under GDPR), session identifiers, and user agents. The enabled `display_errors` also reveals internal server paths on errors. - **CWE**: CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information) - **Severity**: Low ## Recommended Fix Uncomment the CLI guard at `install/test.php:6` to restore the intended access restriction: ```php if (!isCommandLineInterface()) { return die('Command Line only'); } ``` --- *Found by [aisafe.io](https://aisafe.io)*
