Description
AVideo through 29.0 (commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1) fails to verify video access permissions in the set_api_comment function, allowing authenticated users to post comments on password-protected and group-restricted videos. Attackers can submit POST requests to the comment API endpoint with arbitrary video IDs to write comments on videos they cannot watch.
