Because JSON input is parsed and merged into $_REQUEST after global security checks are executed, the payload bypasses the existing sanitization mechanisms.\n\nThis allows an unauthenticated attacker to:\n\n- Execute arbitrary SQL queries\n- Perform full database exfiltration\n- Extract sensitive data including administrator usernames, password hashes, session identifiers and user records\n- Potentially escalate privileges by cracking password hashes offline\n- Chain with authenticated vulnerabilities to achieve full system compromise\n\nThis vulnerability is classified as:\n- CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command (SQL Injection)\n\n\n## Patches\n\nThis vulnerability has been fixed in version 23.\n\nUsers must upgrade to version 23 or later.\n\n\n## Workarounds\n\nThere is no reliable workaround.\n\nThe only recommended mitigation is to upgrade immediately to version 23 upon its release.\n\n\n## References\n\nInternal security report.","published":"2026-03-06T03:05:21.787Z","modified":"2026-10-28T02:30:50.359404207Z","cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Packagist","name":"wwbn/avideo","fixedVersion":null}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/commit/0c10be681c64044618ab94473251bd7c9b114fa1","label":"WWBN/AVideo@0c10be6"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/releases/tag/24.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/28xxx/CVE-2026-28501.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/security/advisories/GHSA-pv87-r9qf-x56p"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-28501"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/commit/0c10be681c64044618ab94473251bd7c9b114fa1"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-10-28T02:30:50.359404207Z"}}
