What your chameleon has could be fungal but it could be something else too.I’m not a vet so I can’t be sure.
I have been involved with CANV studies quite a bit ever since it was first reported in Canada on one of my chameleons…that was the first case of it that led to the studies here.
This is what CANV looks like in bearded dragons…but it looks different in veiled chameleons. This looks silimar in some ways to what your chameleon has looks like…

Figure 3 in this site shows what it looked like to start off in chameleons. This is the original study that was done on it…

On the parsons chameleon some brown pustules did develop at one point on it…but it didn’t ever look like the yellow fungus in the bearded dragons.
