Mediacms

MediaCMS 8.2.0 contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows authenticated users to expose private media metadata belonging to other users by adding arbitrary media tokens to their own playlist without access control checks. Attackers can issue a PUT request to the playlist API endpoint with a known media token to bypass state and ownership validation, then retrieve the playlist to read private media fields including title, description, view count, like count, file size, author username, and encoding status through the unfiltered playlist owner branch in the playlist detail view.

MediaCMS is an open source video and media CMS, written in Python/Django and React, featuring a REST API. MediaCMS has been prone to vulnerabilities that upon special cases can lead to remote code execution. All versions before v4.1.0 are susceptible, and users are highly recommended to upgrade. The vulnerabilities are related with insufficient input validation while uploading media content. The condition to exploit the vulnerability is that the portal allows users to upload content. This issue has been patched in version 4.1.0. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
