Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

CVE-2026-43884

Severity High
Score 7.7/10

Summary

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions through 29.0, two endpoints ('plugin/AI/receiveAsync.json.php' and 'objects/EpgParser.php') in AVideo call 'isSSRFSafeURL()' to validate user-supplied URLs, then fetch them using bare 'file_get_contents()' without disabling PHP's automatic redirect following. An attacker can supply a URL pointing to a server they control that returns a 302 redirect to an internal/cloud-metadata address (e.g., http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/). Since 'isSSRFSafeURL()' only validates the initial URL, the redirect target bypasses all Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) protections.

CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Server-side request forgery (SSRF) is a weakness that allows an attacker to send an arbitrary request, making it appear that the request was sent by the server. This request may bypass a firewall that would normally prevent direct access to the URL. The impact of this vulnerability can vary from unauthorized access to files and sensitive information to remote code execution.
