CVE-2026-33890

CRITICAL

MyTube <1.8.71 Passkey Registration - Admin Privilege Escalation

Title source: manual
STIX 2.1

Description

MyTube is a self-hosted downloader and player for several video websites Prior to version 1.8.71, an unauthenticated attacker can register an arbitrary passkey and subsequently authenticate with it to obtain a full admin session. The application exposes passkey registration endpoints without requiring prior authentication. Any successfully authenticated passkey is automatically granted an administrator token, allowing full administrative access to the application. This enables a complete compromise of the application without requiring any existing credentials. Version 1.8.71 fixes the issue.
