Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in WWBN AVideo up to 23.x and classified as critical. Affected by this issue is an unknown code of the component Memcached Service. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a improper authentication vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-287. When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 24.0, the official docker-compose.yml publishes the memcached service on host port 11211 (0.0.0.0:11211) with no authentication, while the Dockerfile configures PHP to store all user sessions in that memcached instance. An attacker who can reach port 11211 can read, modify, or flush session data — enabling session hijacking, admin impersonation, and mass session destruction without any application-level authentication. This issue has been patched in version 24.0.

The advisory is shared for download at github.com. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2026-29093 since 03/03/2026. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The attack may be launched remotely.
