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 Dark City 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.
Dark City
Vj Tom Sci FI 01h 47m 4 years ago

A man struggles with memories of his past, which include a wife he cannot remember and a nightmarish world no one else ever seems to wake up from.

 API Response Evidence — Vulnerability Proof
Endpoint called GET /api/preview/v2/22003/0
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 35
video_name Dark.City.1998.Tom.1080.mp4
playingUrl returned YES — URL in response
API playingUrl value https://munowatch.co/clips/ELI.mp4
CDN demo stream https://munotech3.b-cdn.net/daphine/Daphine42/1-Vengeance of the Bride-JBS TV-VJ IVO.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).
