CVE-2026-33351
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 · uneditedWWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in `plugin/Live/standAloneFiles/saveDVR.json.php`. When the AVideo Live plugin is deployed in standalone mode (the intended configuration for this file), the `$_REQUEST['webSiteRootURL']` parameter is used directly to construct a URL that is fetched server-side via `file_get_contents()`. No authentication, origin validation, or URL allowlisting is performed. Version 26.0 contains a patch for the issue.
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 analysisThe server can be induced to make requests to a URL an attacker controls, turning it into a proxy into internal networks and cloud metadata services. It's especially dangerous behind a trusted network boundary. The fix is strict allow-listing of destinations and blocking access to internal address ranges.

dbcve · scoped26.0
AVideo version 26.0
- Backup your current AVideo installation and database before proceeding
- Download AVideo version 26.0 from the official GitHub repository (https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo)
- Replace the existing installation files with the version 26.0 files, or run git pull if using git deployment
- Verify that plugin/Live/standAloneFiles/saveDVR.json.php has been updated and no longer directly uses $_REQUEST['webSiteRootURL'] in file_get_contents() without validation
- Test that the Live plugin functionality operates normally after the upgrade
- Monitor logs for any SSRF attempt indicators targeting the affected endpoint
