Original advisory text
AVideo has Unauthenticated Information Disclosure of User Group Permission Mappings via Permissions Plugin
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the endpoint `plugin/Permissions/View/Users_groups_permissions/list.json.php` lacks any authentication or authorization check, allowing unauthenticated users to retrieve the complete permission matrix mapping user groups to plugins. All sibling endpoints in the same directory (`add.json.php`, `delete.json.php`, `index.php`) properly require `User::isAdmin()`, indicating this is an oversight. Commits dc3c825734628bb32550d0daa125f05bacb6829c and b583acdc9a9d1eab461543caa363e1a104fb4516 contain patches.
