CVE-2024-36505

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: FortiOS versions 6.4.x through 7.0.14 FortiOS versions 7.2.5 through 7.2.7 FortiOS versions 7.4.0 through 7.4.3

Description: The issue is related to improper access control in FortiOS, which may allow an attacker who has already obtained write access to the underlying system to bypass the file integrity checking system. This could potentially impact the integrity of protected information.

Recommendations: For FortiOS versions 6.4.x, update to a version outside of the affected range to resolve the issue. For FortiOS versions 7.0.12 through 7.0.14, update to a version outside of the affected range to resolve the issue. For FortiOS versions 7.2.5 through 7.2.7, update to a version outside of the affected range to resolve the issue. For FortiOS versions 7.4.0 through 7.4.3, update to a version outside of the affected range to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive areas of the system to minimize the risk of exploitation.
