SCA: security update for wwbn/avideo (GHSA-8j8m-p79x-g4jm)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443753

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 29.0, Privilege Escalation is possible
 through unguarded permission parameters in signUp API, which allows any user who can solve a CAPTCHA to
 self-grant elevated permissions during account registration. The set_api_signUp method in the API plugin
 accepts emailVerified, canUpload, canStream, and canCreateMeet parameters from user-supplied input and
 applies them to newly created accounts without verifying that the request was authenticated with a valid
 APISecret. By self-granting account attributes, attackers can mark their own accounts as email-verified
 without owning the address (bypassing email-gated functionality) and award themselves upload, streaming,
 and meeting-creation permissions, circumventing administrator access controls that intentionally restrict
 these capabilities for new users. This issue has been fixed in version 29.0 (CVE-2026-33684)

Solution

Update the wwbn/avideo library and its related packages to version 29.0 or later.
