Description
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.
