Credential theft via script-readable password-hash cookie
Published Aug 22, 2022 · Updated Apr 15, 2025
Information disclosure in WWBN AVideo 11.6 and dev master commit 3f7c0364 allows context-dependent attackers to steal password hashes via JavaScript. The login path in objects/user.php stores the password hash in the pass cookie, while _setcookie() in objects/functions.php explicitly sets httponly to false. A separate script-execution path in the victim's browser is required; the stolen hash is accepted as a login credential and carries the victim's privileges.
