CVE-2025-58325

System command execution via restricted CLI bypass

Published Oct 14, 2025 · Updated Oct 14, 2025

Incorrect functionality in the FortiOS CLI allows local users with administrative access to execute system commands via crafted CLI commands. The restricted CLI's command-validation path fails to enforce its intended command limits; Fortinet has not disclosed the specific parser or function. Successful exploitation requires local, authenticated, high-privilege CLI access and can compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability beyond the CLI restriction boundary.
