## What is CVE-2026-89248?

CVE-2026-89248 is a medium-severity vulnerability in WWBN AVideo, published on 11 Sep 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 is missing an authentication/authorization check in plugin/WebRTC/status.json.php. When the WebRTC plugin is present, any unauthenticated remote user can request /plugin/WebRTC/status.json.php and receive JSON containing the absolute filesystem path of the WebRTC2RTMP helper binary (revealing the document-root path), the configured WebRTC port, file_exists/is_executable status for the binary, the contents of the WebRTC log/JSON files (videos/WebRTC2RTMP.log) when present, and whether the configured port is reachable on loopback (127.0.0.1) and on the public address. The endpoint performs no User::isLogged(), User::isAdmin(), or forbiddenPage() check. The issue was unfixed at the time of reporting.

Weakness: CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor)

What it is: CVE-2026-89248 is a medium-severity vulnerability in WWBN AVideo, published on 11 Sep 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-89248 exists.

Affected product: WWBN AVideo. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
