# WWBN AVideo: tags API leaks private video titles and passwords to users

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-126545 (this .md is for agents)

AVideo through 29.7.1 has a missing authorization check in the tags API endpoint in plugin/API/API.php. A registered user who subscribes to a tag can read filenames, titles and stored video passwords of unlisted, group-restricted and password-protected videos.

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

## How to check

- Check the installed AVideo version against the version range in the advisory: `29.7.1` and earlier are listed as affected.
- Look for `get_api_tags` in `plugin/API/API.php` and confirm whether the tags API branch lacks an authorization check.

## Fix

- Move to a release newer than `29.7.1` (fixed version not stated in the sources).

## From the sources

WWBN AVideo through 29.7.1 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in API::get_api_tags() in plugin/API/API.php that allows registered users to access restricted video data by querying the tags API. Attackers can subscribe to a tag and query APIName=tags to obtain filenames, titles and stored video_password values of unlisted, group-restricted and password-protected videos, enabling unauthorized viewing.
