# AVideo: email verification bypass lets users verify other accounts

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-126544 (this .md is for agents)

AVideo versions 6.5 through 29.7.1 have a flaw in the email verification code check, where PHP loose comparison of the recoverPass token can be exploited. A registered user can reuse the installation-wide salt from their own verification link to verify other accounts' emails and unlock features such as live streaming.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:AVideo affected range not listed fixed no fixed version listed

## How to check

- Confirm the installed AVideo version is within 6.5 through 29.7.1.
- Inspect `objects/user.php` for the `User::verifyCode()` function and its recoverPass comparison.

## From the sources

WWBN AVideo 6.5 through 29.7.1 contains an email verification bypass vulnerability in User::verifyCode() in objects/user.php caused by PHP loose comparison of the recoverPass token. Registered users can reuse the installation-wide salt from their own verification link and craft a code with arbitrary users_id and recoverPass set to true to verify other accounts' emails, unlocking features such as live streaming.
