What is CVE-2026-33488?
CVE-2026-33488 is a high-severity vulnerability in Wwbn Avideo, published on 23 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the `createKeys()` function in the LoginControl plugin's PGP 2FA system generates 512-bit RSA keys, which have been publicly factorable since 1999. An attacker who obtains a target user's public key can factor the 512-bit RSA modulus on commodity hardware in hours, derive the complete private key, and decrypt any PGP 2FA challenge issued by the system — completely bypassing the second authentication factor. Additionally, the `generateKeys.json.php` and `encryptMessage.json.php` endpoints lack any authentication checks, exposing CPU-intensive key generation to anonymous users. Commit 00d979d87f8182095c8150609153a43f834e351e contains a patch.
Weakness: CWE-326
