CVE-2026-89253 PUBLISHED

AVideo Stored XSS via donationLink in watch page button

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 11.09.2026 Published: 11.09.2026 Updated: 11.09.2026

WWBN AVideo through commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the user 'donationLink' profile field. User::setDonationLink() (objects/user.php) stores the value and save() validates it only with filter_var(..., FILTER_VALIDATE_URL), which accepts strings such as http://evil.example/"onmouseover=alert(document.domain)//, while getDonationLink() applies only strip_tags() and does not encode double quotes. plugin/CustomizeUser/actionButton.php echoes the value unencoded into an attribute, and that button is included from view/modeYoutubeBottom.php on the watch page when the CustomizeUser option allowDonationLink is enabled. An authenticated user who updates their own profile via objects/userUpdate.json.php can therefore break out of the href attribute and inject an event handler that executes JavaScript in the browser of any visitor—including an administrator—who views the attacker's videos and interacts with (for example, hovers over) the donation button. The issue was unfixed at the time of reporting.
