Affected version
2.2.1
Hi there,

we're getting errors about an unknown getter on the Attachment entity when accessing a thread via Xenforo's API.

Environment​

  • Xenforo 2.2.1
  • PHP 7.4.12
  • MySQL 8.0.22

Observed error​

Code:
InvalidArgumentException: Accessed unknown getter 'video_url' on XF:Attachment[<ID>] src/XF/Mvc/Entity/Entity.php:203

Stack-Trace​

Code:

#18 src/XF.php(465): XF\App->run()
#19 index.php(16): XF::runApp()
#20 {main}

Request Data​

Code:
array(4) {
  ["url"] => string(36) "/forum/api/threads/<THREAD_ID>/posts?page=1"
  ["referrer"] => string(60) "https://www.example.org/forum/api/threads/<THREAD_ID>/posts?page=1"
  ["_GET"] => array(1) {
    ["page"] => string(1) "1"
  }
  ["_POST"] => array(0) {
  }
}

Steps to reproduce​

  • create a post with an attached video
  • fetch the post's thread via Xenforo's API (/forum/api/threads/<thread_id>/posts)

Findings​

  • in ApiHtml.php, line 58 the property/getter video_url for the Attachment entity is accessed
  • the getter for that property isn't found, so an exception is thrown (Entity.php:202)
  • if the getter name in ApiHtml:58 is changed to direct_url everything works as expected:

Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.2.2).

Change log:
Prevent an error when fetching a post that contains an embedded video via the API.
There may be a delay before changes are rolled out to the XenForo Community.

Today i got this error.

Code:
#0 src/XF/Mvc/Entity/Entity.php(110): XF\Mvc\Entity\Entity->get('video_url')
#1 src/addons/Snog/Forms/XF/Pub/Controller/Attachment.php(45): XF\Mvc\Entity\Entity->__get('video_url')
#2 src/XF/Mvc/Dispatcher.php(350): Snog\Forms\XF\Pub\Controller\Attachment->actionUploadAutomated(Object(XF\Mvc\ParameterBag))
#3 src/XF/Mvc/Dispatcher.php(261): XF\Mvc\Dispatcher->dispatchClass('XF:Attachment', 'UploadAutomated', Object(XF\Mvc\RouteMatch), Object(Snog\Forms\XF\Pub\Controller\Attachment), NULL)
#4 src/XF/Mvc/Dispatcher.php(113): XF\Mvc\Dispatcher->dispatchFromMatch(Object(XF\Mvc\RouteMatch), Object(Snog\Forms\XF\Pub\Controller\Attachment), NULL)
#5 src/XF/Mvc/Dispatcher.php(55): XF\Mvc\Dispatcher->dispatchLoop(Object(XF\Mvc\RouteMatch))
#6 src/XF/App.php(2326): XF\Mvc\Dispatcher->run()
#7 src/XF.php(488): XF\App->run()
#8 index.php(20): XF::runApp('XF\\Pub\\App')
#9 {main}

Probably the addon needs an update. Have changed the template.
