CVE-2026-84476
WWBN AVideo fails to validate trusted proxies before accepting X-Real-IP and X-Forwarded-For headers, allowing attackers to spoof the client address used by enforceRateLimit().
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.26%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
