Unauthenticated code execution via crafted packets
Published Jan 14, 2025 · Updated Jul 8, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Fortinet FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer products allows remote attackers to execute code via crafted packets. Fortinet has not identified the affected service or packet field, but states that processing specially crafted packets overflows a stack buffer. Network access and no authentication are required; successful exploitation permits unauthorized code or command execution, while Fortinet rates attack complexity high.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=6.4.0 <=6.4.14
- Affected versionversion=7.0.0 <=7.0.12
- Affected versionversion=7.2.0 <=7.2.5
- Affected versionversion=7.4.0 <=7.4.3
