(e.g., configuration secrets, internal keys, credentials), and service disruption. This issue has been patched in version 7.0.
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Directly prevents command injection by requiring validation of untrusted inputs like the base64Url GET parameter to block shell metacharacters.
Mitigates the vulnerability through timely flaw remediation by patching to AVideo version 7.0 where the issue is fixed.
Enables real-time monitoring to detect indicators of command injection exploitation such as anomalous OS command execution.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2026-29058 is a critical command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) affecting AVideo, an open-source video-sharing platform software. Prior to version 7.0, the vulnerability enables unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the server by injecting shell command substitution into the base64Url GET parameter. The issue carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts with network accessibility and no privileges required.
Any unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity, without user interaction. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary OS command execution, potentially resulting in full server compromise, data exfiltration such as configuration secrets, internal keys, and credentials, as well as service disruption through denial-of-service actions.
The GitHub security advisory (GHSA-9j26-99jh-v26q) confirms the vulnerability has been addressed in AVideo version 7.0, recommending immediate upgrades to mitigate the risk. No workarounds are specified in available details.
