CVE-2026-34738

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, AVideo's video processing pipeline accepts an overrideStatus request parameter that allows any uploader to set a video's status to any valid state, including "active" (a). This bypasses the admin-controlled moderation and draft workflows. The setStatus() method validates the status code against a list of known values but does not verify that the caller has permission to set that particular status. As a result, any user with upload permissions can publish videos directly, circumventing content review processes. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.
