CVE-2026-59256

WWBN AVideo through commit 9c39d8c8 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability where getToken() creates tokens without binding to user identity or purpose, and plugin/Gallery/view/sections.php issues valid tokens to unauthenticated visitors. Attackers can retrieve a token from the Gallery endpoint and use it to bypass authorization checks in other subsystems like view/hls.php to access restricted video content.

Summary		(es) WWBN AVideo a través del commit 9c39d8c8 contiene una vulnerabilidad de omisión de autorización donde getToken() crea tokens sin vincularse a la identidad o propósito del usuario, y plugin/Gallery/view/sections.php emite tokens válidos a visitantes no autenticados. Los atacantes pueden recuperar un token del endpoint de Gallery y usarlo para omitir las comprobaciones de autorización en otros subsistemas como view/hls.php para acceder a contenido de video restringido.
