AVideo is a video-sharing Platform software. Prior to version 7.0, an unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary OS commands on the server by injecting shell command substitution into the base64Url GET parameter. This can lead to full server compromise, data exfiltration (e.g., configuration secrets, internal keys, credentials), and service disruption. This issue has been patched in version 7.0.

- GHSA-9j26-99jh-v26qWWBN AVideo is vulnerable to unauthenticated OS Command Injection via base64Url in objects/getImage.php2026-03-03ghsa · osvUS
## Impact An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary OS commands on the server by injecting shell command substitution into the `base64Url` GET parameter. This can lead to full server compromise, data exfiltration (e.g., configuration secrets, internal keys, credentials), and service disruption. ## Root Cause The `base64Url` parameter is Base64-decoded and then interpolated directly into a double-quoted `ffmpeg` shell command without proper shell escaping. The upstream validation uses `FILTER_VALIDATE_URL`, which validates URL syntax but does not prevent shell metacharacters / command substitution sequences from being interpreted by the shell. ## Affected Components * `objects/getImage.php` * `objects/security.php` * Execution path via async command execution helper (`shell_exec`/`nohup`) ## Patches Apply strict shell argument escaping (e.g., `escapeshellarg()`) to all user-supplied values before building any shell command, and avoid double-quoted interpolation of untrusted input. Prefer safer process execution patterns where possible. ## Workarounds * Restrict access to `objects/getImage.php` at the web server / reverse proxy layer (IP allowlist, auth, or disable endpoint if not needed). * Apply WAF rules to block suspicious patterns and limit exposure until a patch is deployed. ## Resources * Report: "Unauthenticated OS Command Injection in AVideo-Encoder"
