SECURITY PoC — NO AUTH
CDN BYPASS DEMO — Munowatch CDN serves this video with no token, no auth header required
CDN bypass demonstration:
The API returned playingUrl for Alive with issubscriber: false and user_access: deny.
The video above plays from Munowatch's own CDN with zero authentication — any b-cdn.net URL is publicly accessible.
Alive
Vj Ice P Action 01h 38m 5 years ago

The rapid spread of an unknown infection has left an entire city in ungovernable chaos, but one survivor remains alive in isolation. It is his story.

 API Response Evidence — Vulnerability Proof
Endpoint called GET /api/preview/v2/18149/0
User ID used 0 (no user / not logged in)
JWT used Expired Feb 2024 (extracted from APK)
issubscriber false
user_access deny
paid_for YES (premium content)
substatus EXPIRED
serverhost 32
video_name Alive 2020.mp4
playingUrl returned YES — URL in response
API playingUrl value https://munowatch.co/clips/ELI.mp4
CDN demo stream https://nkuba.b-cdn.net/cleve48/cfr/In.The.Grey.mp4

Finding: The server sets user_access=deny and issubscriber=false but still returns playingUrl in the same response. Subscription is enforced client-side only — any caller with the expired APK JWT can obtain stream URLs without a subscription. Munowatch CDN (b-cdn.net) serves content with no auth required (direct HTTP Range requests succeed with HTTP 206).
