Technical details
A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in WWBN AVideo versions prior to 29.0. The vulnerability is located in `plugin/YouTubeAPI/gallerySection.php`, where the `search` GET parameter is concatenated directly into the `href` attribute of pagination links without proper sanitization or encoding. An attacker can inject a `<script>` tag which is subsequently extracted and executed by the AVideo Layout plugin's `organizeHTML()` function. While the attack requires user interaction (clicking a link), a successful exploit against an authenticated administrator can lead to full site compromise via session hijacking or unauthorized API requests. A patch is available in version 29.0.
