Summary

CVE-2026-45060 is a critical blind SQL injection vulnerability in ClipBucket v5, an open-source PHP-based video sharing platform maintained by MacWarrior. The flaw exists in the actions/progress_video.php endpoint and allows any unauthenticated remote attacker to inject arbitrary SQL into the application’s database queries and exfiltrate sensitive data. It carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (Critical).

Technical details

  • Root cause: The ids POST parameter in actions/progress_video.php accepts an array of video IDs. While single-value inputs are safely cast to integers, array-based inputs bypass this protection and are processed through mysql_clean(implode(', ', $param_videoids)). The mysql_clean() function relies on real_escape_string(), which escapes only quotes and backslashes — it does not neutralize SQL metacharacters such as commas, parentheses, hyphens, or SQL keywords. The resulting string is injected verbatim into a SQL WHERE ... IN (...) clause.
  • Trigger conditions: An attacker sends a crafted HTTP POST request to /actions/progress_video.php with a malicious ids[] array value (e.g., 0) OR (1=1)-- -) that breaks out of the SQL IN clause and injects attacker-controlled logic.
  • Attack vector: Remote, unauthenticated — no credentials, session, or user interaction required. Exploitable over the internet against any publicly accessible ClipBucket v5 instance.
  • Exploitation technique: Because direct query output is not returned, attackers use boolean-based or error-based blind techniques, inferring database contents character by character from differences in server response length or behavior.
  • Impact: Full database read and exfiltration, including user credentials, password hashes, email addresses, SMTP configuration, and all other stored data. All three impact dimensions — Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability — are rated High.

Affected software

  • ClipBucket v5 — all versions prior to 5.5.3 – #129

Severity

  • CVSS v3.1 Base Score: 9.8 (Critical)
  • Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
  • CWE: CWE-89 – Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command (‘SQL Injection’)

Mitigation and recommended actions

  • Immediate: Upgrade to ClipBucket v5 version 5.5.3 – #129 or later, which contains the vendor-issued fix applying proper type-casting to all array elements before SQL query assembly.
  • If immediate patching is not possible: Restrict or block public access to the /actions/progress_video.php endpoint at the web server or network firewall level until the patch can be applied.

How IONIX’s External Exposure Management Platform Detects and Validates
Zero-Days to Shrink MTTR

1

Map your entire attack surface (continously)

IONIX uses multi-factor discovery methods, including DNS analysis, certificate mapping, metadata inspection, and more, to automatically map every internet-facing asset across your environment. This includes cloud instances, third-party platforms, shadow IT, and even forgotten infrastructure that traditional tools miss.

2

Monitor for new CVEs

Dozens of threat intel feeds using agentic technology are continuously analyzed to detect the appearance of proof-of-concept code, exploit kits, and indicators of active targeting. IONIX goes further by applying AI to proactively evaluate whether emerging vulnerabilities are likely to be exploited, even before PoCs go public.

3

Identify Potential External Exposures

Not all CVEs matter. IONIX filters vulnerabilities by asking attacker-centric questions: Can it be reached from the internet? Does it require authentication? Is it being exploited in the wild? This dramatically reduces noise and focuses teams on threats that can actually be weaponized.

4

Create Safe, Scalable Exploit Validations

IONIX transforms real-world PoCs into safe, non-intrusive test payloads that can be run in production environments without disruption. These simulations are precisely targeted to the systems that are vulnerable, ensuring rapid validation without unnecessary load.

5

Execute Exploit Validations

By combining context about software stack, versioning, exposure status, and reachability, IONIX ensures that only the right payloads are executed against the right assets, maximizing efficiency and minimizing risk.

6

Drive Fast and Actionable Remediation

Results are routed through integrations with ticketing, SOAR, and SIEM tools. Issues are written in plain language, bundled into remediation clusters, and prioritized based on asset criticality, exploitability, and blast radius. This shortens mean time to remediation (MTTR) and empowers teams to act with confidence.
