Video password disclosure via plaintext database storage
Published Mar 27, 2026 · Updated Mar 27, 2026
Cleartext storage in objects/video.php in WWBN AVideo 26.0 and earlier allows attackers with database read access to obtain video passwords. Video::setVideo_password trims the supplied password and assigns it directly to video_password for persistence in the videos table, while access checks compare the stored plaintext. Exposure requires database read access through a separate flaw, backup disclosure, or misconfiguration; it reveals video passwords but does not itself grant database access.
