CVE-2026-29058
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedAVideo is a video-sharing Platform software. Prior to version 7.0, an unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary OS commands on the server by injecting shell command substitution into the base64Url GET parameter. This can lead to full server compromise, data exfiltration (e.g., configuration secrets, internal keys, credentials), and service disruption. This issue has been patched in version 7.0.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceAVideo versions prior to 7.0 contain an unauthenticated OS command injection vulnerability. Attackers can inject shell command substitution into the base64Url GET parameter, allowing execution of arbitrary operating system commands on the server and leading to full server compromise.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if AVideo Encoder is installedLocate the AVideo installation directory or check for web server content related to AVideo. Common indicators include directories named 'AVideo', 'encoder', or web server configs pointing to AVideo paths.Affected if The target is running any version of Wwbn Avideo Encoder
-
Determine installed AVideo Encoder versionCheck the version information in the AVideo installation - typically found in a version file, about page, or admin panel. Compare your version number against the 7.0 threshold.Affected if Installed version is any version prior to 7.0 (e.g., 6.x, 5.x, etc.)
-
Verify base64Url parameter endpoint is accessibleTest for the presence of the vulnerable endpoint by making a request to the AVideo Encoder interface and checking if the base64Url GET parameter is accepted.Affected if The base64Url parameter endpoint is reachable without authentication and processes base64-encoded input
-
Confirm no network-level restrictions existDetermine if the affected endpoint is exposed to unauthenticated network access. Check firewall rules, network ACLs, or web server authentication settings.Affected if The endpoint accepts unauthenticated requests from external or untrusted sources
A user is affected if they are running Wwbn Avideo Encoder version prior to 7.0 and the base64Url parameter endpoint is accessible without authentication.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped7.0
Upgrade AVideo to version 7.0 or later to remediate this vulnerability. If immediate upgrade is not possible, consider restricting access to the affected endpoint at the network level.
7.0
- Backup the current AVideo Encoder installation and database before proceeding with any changes
- Download AVideo Encoder version 7.0 from the official GitHub repository (github.com)
- Replace all existing AVideo Encoder files with the files from version 7.0
- Verify file permissions are correctly set after the upgrade
- Restart any relevant services (web server, application services)
- Confirm the application is functioning correctly and accessible
- Test that the base64Url parameter is properly sanitized and no longer accepts command injection payloads
