SECURITY PoC — NO AUTH
CDN BYPASS DEMO — Munowatch CDN serves this video with no token, no auth header required
CDN bypass demonstration:

The video above plays from Munowatch's own CDN with zero authentication — any b-cdn.net URL is publicly accessible.
Mafia Wars
Vj Ice P Action 01h 37m 1 year ago

An ex-con gets released early from prison only to be forced into an undercover unit of six men and on his first day the other five are all killed. Now he must face the men who he was tasked to spy on.

 API Response Evidence — Vulnerability Proof
Endpoint called GET /api/preview/v2/55335/0
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 63
video_name MAFIA WARS ICE P.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).
