CVE-2026-85163
AVideo Server-Side Request Forgery via epg_link parameter
Description
AVideo through commit c91b5975d contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the EPG parser that allows authenticated uploaders to fetch arbitrary internal URLs. An attacker can supply an internal URL via the epg_link parameter during video upload, which is validated only for syntax and later fetched server-side during EPG generation without SSRF protection checks.
