CVE-2026-85160

AVideo through commit c91b5975d contains a cross-site request forgery and path traversal vulnerability in stopLive.php that allows attackers to delete directories by exploiting missing token validation and unsanitized key parameter concatenation. Attackers can craft an image tag with a traversal payload like key=../../videos to trigger recursive deletion of the videos directory when an admin visits a malicious page.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
  • FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.4% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 30% of all known flaws.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
