Summary
AVideo: Unauthenticated Arbitrary Image Read via Path Traversal in `view/img/image404Raw.php`
Details

Summary

The endpoint requires no authentication. An unauthenticated remote attacker can read arbitrary image files anywhere on disk that the PHP user can open — including private user-profile photos that the application's normal serving wrappers gate behind ACLs, admin-uploaded thumbnails, encrypted-video poster frames, and image content under sibling-app directories reachable via .. traversal.

Details

view/img/image404Raw.php reads the image GET parameter and joins it directly into a filesystem path served via readfile(). view/img/image404Raw.php (full file, current master @ 0dbadbcaaa1b415c7db078a72dc4b26d9fac0485):

<?php

// Fetch requested image URL
$imageURL = !empty($_GET['image']) ? $_GET['image'] : $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$rootDir = dirname(__FILE__) . '/../../';
if ($imageURL == 'favicon.ico') {
    $imgLocalFile = "{$rootDir}/videos/{$imageURL}";
} else {
    $imgLocalFile = "{$rootDir}/{$imageURL}";   // ← attacker-controlled
}

if (file_exists($imgLocalFile)) {
    $imageInfo = getimagesize($imgLocalFile);   // ← format gate
    if (empty($imageInfo)) {
        die('not image');
    }
    // …extension → Content-Type mapping…
    header("HTTP/1.0 200 OK");
    header('Content-Type: ' . $type);
    header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($imgLocalFile));
    readfile($imgLocalFile);   // ← exfil bytes
    exit;
}

Issues:

  1. No authentication. The file is reachable via direct GET; no require of globals.php, no session check, no API-key gate.
  2. No basename / realpath / prefix containment. $_GET['image'] is concatenated into $imgLocalFile with no .. filtering, no realpath() resolution, no allowlist check against the intended view/img/ directory.
  3. getimagesize() is a magic-bytes check, not a path constraint. Any file on disk whose first bytes match a recognized image format (FFD8FF JPEG, 89504E47 PNG, 474946 GIF, 52494646…57454250 WebP) passes the gate — including images stored outside any ACL'd area of the application.
  4. $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] fallback when image is empty widens the attack surface (path components in the URI itself land in $imgLocalFile).

Re-verified pre-submission on 2026-05-13 against view/img/image404Raw.php blob SHA c670b0faff4fbea1fd0508f179956975477d4340 — unsafe shape unchanged since first discovery on 2026-05-12.

Recommended fix — three layered checks, any one alone is insufficient:

// view/img/image404Raw.php — proposed fix
<?php

$imageURL = !empty($_GET['image']) ? $_GET['image'] : '';
if ($imageURL === '') {
    http_response_code(400);
    exit('bad request');
}

// 1. Reject any path-traversal segment outright.
if (strpos($imageURL, '..') !== false
    || strpos($imageURL, "\0") !== false
    || strpos($imageURL, '://') !== false) {
    http_response_code(400);
    exit('bad request');
}

// 2. Resolve to a real path and verify prefix containment under the
//    intended image directory.
$rootDir = realpath(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../../');
$imgLocalFile = realpath($rootDir . '/' . $imageURL);
if ($imgLocalFile === false
    || (strpos($imgLocalFile, $rootDir . '/videos/') !== 0
        && strpos($imgLocalFile, $rootDir . '/view/img/') !== 0)) {
    http_response_code(404);
    exit('not found');
}

// 3. Existing getimagesize() check stays as defense-in-depth.
if (!is_file($imgLocalFile)) {
    http_response_code(404);
    exit('not found');
}
$imageInfo = @getimagesize($imgLocalFile);
if (empty($imageInfo)) {
    http_response_code(404);
    exit('not image');
}

// …rest of the original Content-Type + readfile() flow unchanged…

Drop the $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] fallback entirely; if no image parameter is provided, return 400.

PoC

Discovery probe — any HTTP client, no authentication, no cookies:

GET /view/img/image404Raw.php?image=../videos/userPhoto/photo1.jpg HTTP/1.1
Host: avideo.example.com

If videos/userPhoto/photo1.jpg exists on the server, the response is the raw image bytes (HTTP 200, Content-Type: image/jpeg). The application's normal user-photo serving wrapper (which can gate by session / channel ownership) is bypassed entirely.

Cross-directory probe — read images outside the AVideo install root:

GET /view/img/image404Raw.php?image=../../../var/www/other-app/uploads/users/admin.jpg HTTP/1.1
Host: avideo.example.com

If the PHP user has read access to a sibling app's image directory, those files are exfiltrable too.

Enumeration — iterate over predictable numeric IDs:

GET /view/img/image404Raw.php?image=../videos/userPhoto/photo1.jpg
GET /view/img/image404Raw.php?image=../videos/userPhoto/photo2.jpg
GET /view/img/image404Raw.php?image=../videos/userPhoto/photo3.jpg
...

…to harvest all profile images regardless of the application's intended privacy controls.

Impact

Path traversal → arbitrary image read (CWE-22 + CWE-284). Affects any AVideo deployment running master through commit 0dbadbca and likely every release on the supported branches. The attacker:

  1. Bypasses the application's image-content ACLs. Profile photos under videos/userPhoto/ and admin-uploaded private thumbnails that AVideo's normal image-serving wrappers gate by session / channel ownership become readable to any anonymous internet user.
  2. Reads images stored outside the AVideo install root. On shared-hosting / multi-tenant deployments, .. traversal lets the attacker page into sibling-app upload directories — anywhere the PHP user has read access on disk and the target file's first bytes form a valid image header.
  3. Enables enumeration at scale. Numeric ID schemes (photo1.jpg, photo2.jpg, …) and predictable filenames let an attacker harvest every private image on a deployment without detection (each request looks like a single 200-image-OK to the web log).

Because the read primitive is restricted to image-magic-bytes files, there is no source-code or credential exfiltration via this primitive alone — but the privacy / GDPR exposure is substantial on any deployment that hosts user-uploaded photos. CVSS 5.3 (Medium) reflects the limited but real confidentiality impact; many operators will rate this higher because the leaked content is user-private by intent.

This is not a silent-fix disclosure — the bug is still present on current master at submission time; the maintainer is being notified of a previously-unknown issue.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
  • Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].

Mitigation MIT-4.4
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks

  • Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
  • For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
  • One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
System Configuration Installation

Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.

CAPEC-665: Exploitation of Thunderbolt Protection Flaws

An adversary leverages a firmware weakness within the Thunderbolt protocol, on a computing device to manipulate Thunderbolt controller firmware in order to exploit vulnerabilities in the implementation of authorization and verification schemes within Thunderbolt protection mechanisms. Upon gaining physical access to a target device, the adversary conducts high-level firmware manipulation of the victim Thunderbolt controller SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) flash, through the use of a SPI Programing device and an external Thunderbolt device, typically as the target device is booting up. If successful, this allows the adversary to modify memory, subvert authentication mechanisms, spoof identities and content, and extract data and memory from the target device. Currently 7 major vulnerabilities exist within Thunderbolt protocol with 9 attack vectors as noted in the Execution Flow.
