Unauthenticated file disclosure via unchecked ServiceUrl scheme
Published Aug 25, 2026 · Updated Aug 26, 2026
Local file disclosure in Kaltura HTML5 Video Player 2.103 and earlier allows remote attackers to read server files via ServiceUrl. mwEmbedLoader.php accepts file URLs for backend requests, passes the returned bytes to PHP deserialization, and reflects raw input when parsing fails. Network access to the legacy Player V2 endpoint is sufficient, and disclosure is limited to files readable by the web-server user.
