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 Row 19 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.
Row 19
Vj Junior Thriller 01h 16m 4 years ago

A young female doctor with a 6-year-old daughter is on a night flight caught in a terrible storm. In a half-empty cabin, she faces unexplained deaths of her fellow passengers, loses her grip on reality and relives the worst nightmare from her childhood.

 API Response Evidence — Vulnerability Proof
Endpoint called GET /api/preview/v2/25929/0
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 36
video_name Row.19.2021.DUBBED.1080p.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).
