WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, the `verifyTokenSocket()` function in `plugin/YPTSocket/functions.php` has its token timeout validation commented out, causing WebSocket tokens to never expire despite being generated with a 12-hour timeout. This allows captured or legitimately obtained tokens to provide permanent WebSocket access, even after user accounts are deleted, banned, or demoted from admin. Admin tokens grant access to real-time connection data for all online users including IP addresses, browser info, and page locations. Commit 5d5237121bf82c24e9e0fdd5bc1699f1157783c5 fixes the issue.

GHSA-2mg4-pfgx-64cf — AVideo's WebSocket Token Never Expires Due to Commented-Out Timeout Validation in verifyTokenSocket()

Affected: Packagist: wwbn/avideo

## Summary

The `verifyTokenSocket()` function in `plugin/YPTSocket/functions.php` has its token timeout validation commented out, causing WebSocket tokens to never expire despite being generated with a 12-hour timeout. This allows captured or legitimately obtained tokens to provide permanent WebSocket access, even after user accounts are deleted, banned, or demoted from admin. Admin tokens grant access to real-time connection data for all online users including IP addresses, browser info, and page locations.

## Details

WebSocket tokens are generated via `getEncryptedInfo()` which calls `getToken(43200)` to create a token with a 12-hour expiration window. The token is encrypted and contains security-critical claims: `isAdmin`, `from_users_id`, `user_name`, IP, browser, and device ID.

The regular HTTP token verification at `objects/functions.php:3437-3439` enforces the timeout:

```php // objects/functions.php:3437-3439 if (!($time >= $obj->time && $time <= $obj->timeout)) { _error_log("verifyToken token timout..."); return false; // <-- enforced } ```

But the WebSocket-specific verification at `plugin/YPTSocket/functions.php:65-82` has the enforcement commented out:

```php // plugin/YPTSocket/functions.php:77-80 if (!($time >= $obj->time && $time <= $obj->timeout)) { //_error_log("verifyToken token timout..."); //return false; // <-- NOT enforced, always falls through to return true } return true; ```

**Execution flow:**
