Registered on FIFA's public Agent Platform with my ID, got added to their Microsoft Entra tenant, and found the Angular app only checked roles client-side. The backend APIs served everything: RTMP ingest URLs and stream keys for every live World Cup 2026 camera feed across all five angles. Confirmed live in VLC. An attacker could have pushed arbitrary video to the ingest endpoints and replaced broadcast feeds on TV worldwide. Write access to match stats, commentator notes, and the live score system was also exposed.
