CVE-2026-33488 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade wwbn/avideo to version 29.0 or higher.
Overview
wwbn/avideo is an Audio and Video Platform or simply "A Video Platform".
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Inadequate Encryption Strength due to the use of weak cryptographic key generation in the createKeys function. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to protected accounts and decrypt sensitive authentication challenges by factoring the 512-bit RSA public key and reconstructing the private key. Additionally, unauthenticated endpoints such as generateKeys.json.php and encryptMessage.json.php allow anonymous users to trigger CPU-intensive operations, potentially leading to resource exhaustion.
