CVE-2026-35450 is a medium-severity Missing Authentication for Critical Function (CWE-306) vulnerability in Wwbn Avideo. Its CVSS base score is 5.3 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 30th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and IA-2 (Identification and Authentication (Organizational Users)) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data
WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions 26.0 and prior, the plugin/API/check.ffmpeg.json.php endpoint probes the FFmpeg remote server configuration and returns connectivity status without any authentication. All sibling FFmpeg management endpoints (kill.ffmpeg.json.php, list.ffmpeg.json.php, ffmpeg.php) require User::isAdmin().

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly enforces authentication and authorization checks on the check.ffmpeg.json.php endpoint before returning FFmpeg configuration data.
Requires identification and authentication of users prior to allowing access to the unauthenticated FFmpeg probe endpoint.
Ensures only authorized admin accounts can reach FFmpeg management functions, limiting exposure when the missing-auth check is corrected.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Directly requires authentication of users/services/hardware, which eliminates missing authentication for critical functions.
Managing identities and credentials is a prerequisite for authentication but does not itself enforce it on critical functions.
Defining and enforcing authorizations assumes prior authentication and therefore only partially mitigates the absence of authentication.
Protecting networks from unauthorized access can be undermined by missing authentication but does not address the root authentication gap.

The control explicitly calls for authentication before any critical function is reached, eliminating the possibility of bypassing authentication for high-value operations.
Mandating authentication requirements for critical functions at the requirements-gathering stage ensures that essential operations are not left unprotected by missing login or verification mechanisms.
Mandating authentication for network services and critical functions stops attackers from invoking sensitive operations without credentials, closing gaps where authentication is absent for important capabilities.
Security engineering principles insist on authentication and authorization for every critical function, eliminating entry points that lack any access control mechanism.
Requiring strong authentication and access-privilege enablement for remote connections ensures that critical functions cannot be invoked without proper verification, closing a gap that would otherwise allow unauthenticated use.
Mandatory use of access cards, biometrics, or two-factor authentication ensures that critical physical areas cannot be entered without proper authentication.
