Fortinet Patches Authentication Flaws in FortiWeb and FortiManager
By Ionut Arghire
AI Summary
Fortinet patched authentication bypass vulnerabilities in both FortiWeb and FortiManager that could allow attackers to log in with arbitrary credentials or impersonate any FortiGate appliance on the network. These flaws represent a critical risk given the privileged position FortiManager and FortiWeb hold in enterprise network architectures. Fortinet customers should apply the latest patches immediately and review access logs for anomalous authentication attempts.
