Technical details
The `install/checkConfiguration.php` endpoint interpolates unsanitized request parameters (including `webSiteRootURL`) into single-quoted PHP string literals without escaping when generating `videos/configuration.php`, enabling PHP code injection. The vulnerability also contains secondary SQL-injection sinks in streamer and configuration INSERT statements. Exploitation requires the configuration file to be absent and the ability to point database parameters to an attacker-controlled server; no target credentials are needed, and the attacker gains arbitrary file read/write and command execution as the web-server user.
Affected products
