# CVE-2026-33688: AVideo has Pre-Captcha User Enumeration and Account Status Disclosure in Password Recovery Endpoint

- Also known as: GHSA-M99F-MMVG-3XMX
- Severity: CVSS 5.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-03-23 · Updated: 2026-03-24

## Affected

- WWBN AVideo: through 26.0
- wwbn/avideo (Packagist): through 26.0

## Description

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the password recovery endpoint at `objects/userRecoverPass.php` performs user existence and account status checks before validating the captcha. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to enumerate valid usernames and determine whether accounts are active, inactive, or banned — at scale and without solving any captcha — by observing three distinct JSON error responses. Commit e42f54123b460fd1b2ee01f2ce3d4a386e88d157 contains a patch.
