It got me confused. Unfortunately, I didn't get a screenshot where I hovered over the Arathi Weaponsmith to show the buff. Basically it just said "Fanatic Devotion - Increased stats".
This has to be a crazy bug. All the C'thun buff cards have an enchantment with similar names applied to them. Night's Devotion, Sorcerous Devotion, etc. That's just the names of the buffs they apply to C'thun. How the heck did a C'thun buff from Crazed Worshipper get on an Arathi Weaponsmith shifted Shifter Zerus, and why did it give 4/4?!
I'm not sure but, around 2 turns before the screenshot, the last minion I played that interacted with Brann was Twin Emperor Vek'lor. I think my C'Thun was at 14/14 that time.
Well, apparently Zerus is so crazy that when transformed he thinks he IS the C'Thun. 4/4 because its 2/2 * 2 from Brann.
Even if Zerus thought he was C'thun, Crazed Worshipper requires himself to be damaged to give his buff, he gives 1/1 at a time, and it's not a battlecry effect.
Yes it did early on in the game. No i don't use Crazed Worshipper.
Then, that would do it. Watch Disguised Toast's video about WoG interactions, he mentions that Shifter Zerus retains all the buffs that he gains while in your hand, even after he transforms! So, that means that all the C'Thun buffs and The Mistcaller-like buffs would still remain even after he changes. Really cool. :D Guess it isn't a bug after all.

That confirms it. Thought it was some kind of secret interaction. Thanks! :P

Does this mean that if I played a Disciple of C'thun, or any minion that buffs C'thun, my Arathi Weaponsmith will also get the buff while he is on the board? (because at one point, he was C'thun in my hand)
Then the only bug is that the buff was named "Fanatic Devotion", as that particular C'thun buff can only be applied by Crazed Worshipper. In other news, Shifter Zerus is really cool.

Possibly. I think that they would need to take place when Zerus has transformed into C'thun.

I discovered a secret buff called "Fanatic Devotion" after casting my Shifter Zerus transformed as Arathi Weaponsmith while Brann Bronzebeard was on the board. I'm not really sure how I got it. Maybe it was because Shifter Zerus (transformed to battlecry minon) reacted to Brann Bronzebeard's ability.
It gave the transformed minion +4/+4.
Here's a screenshot. (Fanatic Devotion)
Huh, that buff was datamined a while back. Didn't know how to get it. You should test it some more.
Edit: The Hearthstone Wiki ties that name to Crazed Worshipper. Strange.

Let's hope Blizz gives us an answer. If this weren't a bug, we could see some wild plays from Shifter Zerus.
Did Zerus become C'thun at any point?
And do you have Crazed Worshipper in your deck?
Apparently Zeerus retains any buffs he gets while he is transformed. Disguised Toast did a video on it
Edit: Ninja'd
Nope, only while Zerus is C'thun.
Then the only bug is that the buff was named "Fanatic Devotion", as that particular C'thun buff can only be applied by Crazed Worshipper. In other news, Shifter Zerus is really cool.
