Command Injection RCE in WWBN AVideo CloneSite plugin

IdentifiersCVE-2026-41304CWE-77· Improper Neutralization of Special…

CVE-2026-41304 affects WWBN AVideo, an open source video platform. In versions 29.0 and below, the cloneServer.json.php endpoint in the CloneSite plugin constructs a shell command by concatenating the user-controlled url parameter into a wget command and executes it via PHP exec() without proper sanitization. Because shell metacharacters are not neutralized, an attacker can break out of the intended URL argument context and append arbitrary commands, resulting in command injection and remote code execution on the server.

ANALYST BRIEF

Impact, mitigation & remediation

What it means. What to do now. Patch path, mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.

Impact

What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.

Successful exploitation allows arbitrary shell command execution on the affected AVideo server in the security context of the web application or underlying web server process. This can lead to full compromise of application data, unauthorized modification of content or configuration, service disruption, and potentially broader host compromise depending on the privileges available to the process.

Mitigation

If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.

Until a fixed version is deployed, disable or restrict access to the CloneSite plugin and specifically the cloneServer.json.php endpoint. Limit network exposure to trusted administrators only, and if possible block external access to the vulnerable endpoint at the web server, reverse proxy, or firewall layer. Additional hardening includes removing use of shell execution for this workflow, constraining outbound command execution, and running the web application with minimal OS privileges to reduce post-exploitation impact.

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Upgrade to a fixed release containing commit 473c609fc2defdea8b937b00e86ce88eba1f15bb, which addresses the unsafe command construction in the CloneSite plugin. If upgrading by source, apply that commit or the equivalent vendor patch to eliminate direct concatenation of untrusted input into shell commands.
