The code does not properly sanitize user input before using it in SQL queries, which makes the application vulnerable to SQL injection attacks.
Impact:
An attacker can manipulate SQL queries through user input, leading to unauthorized data access and potential database corruption or disclosure.
Mitigation:
Use parameterized queries with prepared statements that take advantage of the underlying database system's ability to safely ignore any malicious input. Avoid using string concatenation for building SQL queries.

The code allows unrestricted access to the video file by directly using a path provided in the input. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information or even complete system compromise if the attacker has control over the file path.
Impact:
Unauthorized users could gain access to restricted files, leading to data leakage and potential system manipulation.
Mitigation:
Implement strict access controls by validating and sanitizing user inputs before using them to construct file paths. Use whitelisting mechanisms to restrict acceptable file extensions or locations.
