CVE-2026-61567 · Severity: critical · CVSS 10 · Published 2026-10-28

AVideo is a video-sharing platform used to stream and manage online video content. Prior to version 8.1.0, attackers without authentication can remotely execute arbitrary commands on the server through the live-streaming endpoint by supplying crafted video paths that are not properly escaped before being passed to system commands. This allows complete compromise of the platform, theft of credentials, file modification, and service disruption.

**How is CVE-2026-61567 attacked?** It is attacked over the network, in a web application.

**Am I affected by CVE-2026-61567?** Check whether you run WWBN AVideo Encoder at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

## How to fix

- Fixed in 8.1.0

Restrict network access to the encoder from untrusted sources; disable or restrict the live-streaming endpoint if not in use.

## Technical details

The `view/videosListToLive.php` endpoint accepts an attacker-controlled `webSiteRootURL` parameter, trusts the returned JSON session state without verification, and fetches a second attacker-controlled video-list response. Video paths from this response are interpolated directly into `ffprobe` and `ffmpeg` commands without shell argument escaping before being passed to `exec()`. An unauthenticated remote attacker reachable by the encoder can craft paths containing shell delimiters to achieve arbitrary command execution as the web-server user, bypassing the streamer allowlist checks that are not called by this endpoint.
