VAR-201911-0300

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 12:17

Use of a hard-coded cryptographic key to cipher sensitive data in FortiOS configuration backup file may allow an attacker with access to the backup file to decipher the sensitive data, via knowledge of the hard-coded key. The aforementioned sensitive data includes users' passwords (except the administrator's password), private keys' passphrases and High Availability password (when set). Fortinet FortiOS is a set of security operating system dedicated to the FortiGate network security platform developed by Fortinet. The system provides users with various security functions such as firewall, anti-virus, IPSec/SSLVPN, Web content filtering and anti-spam. Fortinet FortiOS 5.6.10 and earlier versions, 6.0.6 and earlier versions, and 6.2.0 versions have security vulnerabilities. Fortinet FortiOS is prone to a hardcoded cryptographic key vulnerability.

Successful exploits will allow malicious users to obtain sensitive information that may aid in further attacks
