FAQ
Latest Global CVEs
ClipBucket v5 is an open source video sharing platform. Prior to version 5.5.3 - #133, a normal authenticated user can edit another user's video subtitles because of a lack of authorization. They can upload subtitles, edit their name or delete them. This issue has been patched in version 5.5.3 - #133.
ClipBucket v5 is an open source video sharing platform. Prior to version 5.5.3 - #132, any authenticated user who can upload videos can add multiple subtitles from different files and change their title (English, Spanish...). The POST /actions/subtitle_edit.php request used to change their title includes a number parameter which is vulnerable to SQL Injection. A boolean-based blind SQL injection can be used to exfiltrate sensitive data. This issue has been patched in version 5.5.3 - #132.
ClipBucket v5 is an open source video sharing platform. Prior to version 5.5.3 - #129, the actions/progress_video.php endpoint is vulnerable to blind SQL injection. Any unauthenticated user can exploit the ids parameter to execute SQL queries and exfiltrate sensitive data. This issue has been patched in version 5.5.3 - #129.
ClipBucket v5 is an open source video sharing platform. Prior to version 5.5.3 - #140, ClipBucket's Remote Play feature allows any authenticated user to add a video by importing an external URL as the source. Some shell commands are run with the URL as a parameter. The URL is concatenated directly into shell commands without escaping then executed, so any shell metacharacter in the URL is interpreted. This results in arbitrary command execution. This issue has been patched in version 5.5.3 - #140.
An authenticated format string vulnerability exists in the ONVIF service of Tapo C110 v2 due to improper handling of user-controlled input. Externally controlled data is interpreted as a format string, which can be used to manipulate stack memory, including control flow data such as return addresses. A remote authenticated attacker may redirect execution flow to existing internal functions, triggering an unauthorized factory reset, leading to loss of configuration, deletion of stored credentials and service disruption.
