What is CVE-2026-41056?
CVE-2026-41056 is a high-severity vulnerability in Wwbn Avideo, published on 21 Apr 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Official description
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 29.0 and below, the `allowOrigin($allowAll=true)` function in `objects/functions.php` reflects any arbitrary `Origin` header back in `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` along with `Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true`. This function is called by both `plugin/API/get.json.php` and `plugin/API/set.json.php` — the primary API endpoints that handle user data retrieval, authentication, livestream credentials, and state-changing operations. Combined with the application's `SameSite=None` session cookie policy, any website can make credentialed cross-origin requests and read authenticated API responses, enabling theft of user PII, livestream keys, and performing state changes on behalf of the victim. Commit caf705f38eae0ccfac4c3af1587781355d24495e contains a fix.
Weakness: CWE-942
