AI-suggested

The vendor has indicated that the status field was removed from hidden form fields in the banner edit screen, which suggests a code-level fix has been implemented. Users should monitor the official Revive project advisories for an official patch or update. Until then, restrict advertiser-level permissions carefully and consider additional access controls as a temporary measure.

Description

An access control bypass allows an advertiser‑level user to activate or deactivate a banner in Revive Adserver 6.0.6 and earlier, even when such permissions were not granted. The banner-edit.php script allowed the banner status to be overwritten solely based on banner edit permissions. The status field has been removed from the hidden form fields in the banner edit screen.
