No affected components available
Impact
An unauthenticated SQL Injection vulnerability exists in AVideo within the objects/videos.json.php and objects/video.php components.
The application fails to properly sanitize the catName parameter when it is supplied via a JSON-formatted POST request body. Because JSON input is parsed and merged into $_REQUEST after global security checks are executed, the payload bypasses the existing sanitization mechanisms.
This allows an unauthenticated attacker to:
- Execute arbitrary SQL queries
- Perform full database exfiltration
- Extract sensitive data including administrator usernames, password hashes, session identifiers and user records
- Potentially escalate privileges by cracking password hashes offline
- Chain with authenticated vulnerabilities to achieve full system compromise
This vulnerability is classified as:
- CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command (SQL Injection)
Patches
This vulnerability has been fixed in version 23.
Users must upgrade to version 23 or later.
Workarounds
