Very low probability of exploitation
EPSS predicts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days based on real-world threat data, complementing CVSS severity scores with actual risk assessment.
Type: Cross-site request forgery on the 2FA toggle. plugin/LoginControl/set.json.php accepts POST type=set2FA value=false, calls LoginControl::setUser2FA(User::getId(), false) on the session-authenticated user, and returns. There is no forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest() call, no isTokenValid() check, no X-CSRF-Token/SameSite enforcement, and no re-authentication step. A cross-origin page that the victim visits while logged into the AVideo dashboard issues the POST via a hidden form (or fetch without credentials:"omit") and disables the victim's 2FA in one request. The next phishing/credential-stuffing attempt against that account no longer needs the second factor.
File: plugin/LoginControl/set.json.php, lines 1-37.
Root cause: the developer relied on the User::isLogged() check at line 9 as the only auth, then dispatched directly into LoginControl::setUser2FA(User::getId(), $value=='true'). Other AVideo state-changing endpoints in the same codebase (videoUpdateUsage.json.php, videoStatus.json.php, videoRotate.json.php, etc.) call forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest('<name>') to compare Origin/Referer against the AVideo domain; this endpoint simply omits the call. The session cookie carries the user's identity on every cross-origin POST, so any attacker page can speak for the logged-in user on this endpoint.

Why it's wrong: disabling a victim's second factor is exactly the kind of state change the AVideo CSRF helper forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest() exists to protect. Compare with objects/comments_like.json.php:18 (forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest('comments_like')) — comments-likes get CSRF protection, but the 2FA toggle does not. Beyond CSRF, security-sensitive toggles like 2FA-disable conventionally also require either the current 2FA code or a password re-prompt: a malicious browser extension, an XSS that lands in any AVideo subdomain, or a compromised tab can otherwise flip the bit silently. None of those mitigations exist here.
https://attacker.example/avideo-2fa-off.html containing:
<form id="f" action="https://avideo.example/plugin/LoginControl/set.json.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="set2FA">
<input type="hidden" name="value" value="false">
</form>
<script>document.getElementById('f').submit();</script>
avideo.example (open redirect on a trusted partner, ad campaign, IM phishing link, encyclopedic-looking forum post). The victim's browser opens the page; the form auto-submits to AVideo. State: cross-origin POST hits set.json.php with the victim's session cookie attached (the cookie's SameSite attribute is set to Lax/None by AVideo's defaults so the cross-origin POST succeeds for top-level navigations).set.json.php:9 confirms User::isLogged() (true, victim's session is valid). Lines 13-19 see type=set2FA, value=false. Line 30-32 calls LoginControl::setUser2FA(victim_user_id, false) and persists the change. State: victim's 2FA is now disabled in users.externalOptions.LoginControl.is2FAEnabled.iframe). State: victim notices nothing unusual.avideo.example/objects/login.json.php. Without the second factor, any one of: a previously leaked password, a successful credential-stuffing match, or a spear-phishing-collected password completes the login. State: attacker holds full session for victim's account.Severity: sec-moderate. CVSS 6.5: network attack, low complexity, low privileges (the attacker themselves are unauthenticated; the victim must be a logged-in AVideo user; this is captured by PR:L because the action's effect requires the victim's session), user interaction required (visit attacker page), scope unchanged, no confidentiality directly, high integrity (the victim's 2FA configuration is silently corrupted), no availability claim.
Attacker capability: with one cross-origin POST, the attacker turns a victim's 2FA-protected account into a plain password-only account. Combined with any password leak, credential-stuffing match, or successful phishing of the password, the account is fully compromised. The change is permanent until the victim notices and re-enables 2FA, and AVideo does not raise an audit-log event when 2FA is disabled (see LoginControl::setUser2FA — it simply writes the boolean), so detection is unlikely.
Preconditions: AVideo deployment with the LoginControl plugin enabled (the plugin shipping the 2FA feature); the victim is logged in to AVideo at the moment they visit the attacker page; the AVideo session cookie does not have SameSite=Strict (the deployment default is SameSite=Lax per objects/phpsessionid.json.php:53, which still allows cross-origin top-level POSTs from a form auto-submit).
Differential: source-inspection-verified. set.json.php does not contain forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest, isTokenValid, verifyToken, or any equivalent string; the entire body of the file is reproduced above. With the suggested fix below, the same cross-origin POST returns a 403 with Invalid Request and the setUser2FA call never fires.
Add the same CSRF gate every other state-changing endpoint in this codebase uses, and require the current 2FA code (or a password re-prompt) when the user is disabling the second factor.

Defence-in-depth: the AVideo session cookie should be issued with SameSite=Strict for the management dashboard's first-party POSTs; the public read-only player can keep a separate SameSite=Lax cookie. Audit-log every 2FA-disable event with the source IP and user agent so an unexpected disable is visible to the operator.
