Research direction
Reproduce the issue through Media and Upload media using an AVIF file, then inspect how the upload is represented on the site front end. Done means an uploaded AVIF image is displayed and identified as AVIF rather than JPG; the payload names no files or tests, so the relevant media-handling entry point must be located first.
