Summary

CVE-2026-21875 is a critical-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Oxygenz Clipbucket. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 28th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

CVE-2026-21875 is a Blind SQL Injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in ClipBucket v5, an open source video sharing platform. It affects versions 5.5.2-#187 and below. The issue arises in the add comment section within a channel, where a POST request to the /actions/ajax.php endpoint passes the obj_id parameter directly to the user_exists function in upload/includes/classes/user.class.php. This parameter is then used unsanitized in the count function within upload/includes/classes/db.class.php, allowing injection via payloads like 1' or 1=1-- -.

An unauthenticated attacker (PR:N) with network access (AV:N) can exploit this vulnerability with low complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction (UI:N). By submitting a crafted obj_id in the POST request, they can trigger blind SQL injection, achieving high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H), as rated 9.8 by CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H.

The GitHub security advisory GHSA-crpv-fmc4-j392 states that no fix is available at the time of publication on 2026-01-08. Administrators should restrict access to affected endpoints, validate inputs, or upgrade upon patch release.

Vulnerability Data

ClipBucket v5 is an open source video sharing platform. Versions 5.5.2-#187 and below allow an attacker to perform Blind SQL Injection through the add comment section within a channel. When adding a comment within a channel, there is a POST…

request to the /actions/ajax.php endpoint. The obj_id parameter within the POST request to /actions/ajax.php is then used within the user_exists function of the upload/includes/classes/user.class. php file as the $id parameter. It is then used within the count function of the upload/includes/classes/db.class. php file. The $id parameter is concatenated into the query without validation or sanitization, and a user-supplied input like 1' or 1=1-- - can be used to trigger the injection. This issue does not have a fix at the time of publication.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover SQLi flaws before deployment but does not stop their introduction.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from reaching SQL query construction without neutralization.

Secure engineering principles require parameterized queries and input sanitization that structurally eliminate SQLi.

System monitoring can identify attempted SQLi exploitation via anomalous queries after the weakness exists.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly target injection flaws during coding and review so largely prevent CWE-89 introduction, yet the single broad outcome leaves residual risk from incomplete neutralization techniques or missed edge cases.

PR.AT-02 partial match
prevents

Training raises developer awareness of SQLi risks and can reduce introduction likelihood (partial) but removes none of the actual coding flaw's risk by itself since technical neutralization is still required.

finds

The same secure-coding and static-analysis activities surface missing neutralization of SQL metacharacters before the system is accepted.

prevents

Early warnings and shared best-practice information help organizations apply the latest remediation techniques against SQL-injection vulnerabilities.

prevents

Threat-intelligence feeds that surface new SQL-injection campaigns enable rapid updates to query-construction defenses and detection signatures before exploitation occurs.

prevents

Secure-coding rules and security testing phases mandate the use of parameterized queries or equivalent escaping, preventing the construction of dynamic SQL statements from untrusted input.

prevents

Language-specific secure coding rules, peer review and SAST together prevent the construction of SQL statements from untrusted data without proper parameterization or escaping.
