CVE-2026-105089 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.7 · Published 2026-10-04

WWBN AVideo is an open-source video hosting platform. A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability allows users with upload permission to inject malicious code via the video trailer field, which is then executed in the browsers of anyone viewing the site—including administrators. An attacker can craft a video trailer URL that breaks out of HTML attributes and executes arbitrary JavaScript when victims visit the platform's homepage or channel playlists.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a stored XSS in the video trailer1 field. Video::setTrailer1() in objects/video.php only validates URLs with FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, which accepts quotes and angle brackets. Four templates render the unescaped trailer1 value in onclick handlers and iframe src attributes (row_info.php, BigVideoButtons.php, BigVideo.php, channelPlaylistItems.php) without the htmlspecialchars() escaping present in two other templates. An authenticated attacker with upload permission can inject payloads like `https://evil.example/x');alert(1);//` or `https://evil.example/a">` to break out and execute JavaScript in all visitors' browsers when they view affected pages.
