Description
AVideo through 29.0 (commit c3edcc274c389816d434acadac07ee78eaf330c1) fails to validate video access permissions in the API like endpoint, allowing logged-in users to vote on password-protected and group-restricted videos. Attackers can submit like and dislike requests to increment vote counters on videos they cannot watch by calling the set.json.php endpoint with APIName parameters.
