Fortinet FortiOS contains an exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor vulnerability. This may allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to bypass the patch developed for the symbolic link persistency mechanism observed in some post-exploit cases, via crafted HTTP requests. An attacker would need first to have compromised the product via another vulnerability, at filesystem level.
Fortinet FortiSandbox contains an OS command injection vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute unauthorized code or commands via crafted HTTP requests.
Fortinet FortiSandbox, FortiSandbox Cloud, and FortiSandbox PaaS contain an OS command injection vulnerability that allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute unauthorized commands via specifically crafted HTTP requests.
