A heap buffer overflow in Fortinet FortiOS 6.0.0 through 6.0.4, 5.6.0 through 5.6.10, 5.4.0 through 5.4.12, 5.2.14 and earlier and FortiProxy 2.0.0, 1.2.8 and earlier in the SSL VPN web portal may cause the SSL VPN web service termination for logged in users due to a failure to properly handle javascript href data when proxying webpages.

The remote host is running a version of FortiOS prior to 5.6.11 or 6.0.x prior to 6.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by a heap buffer overflow condition in the SSL VPN web portal due to improper handling of javascript href data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to visit a specifically crafted webpage, to cause a denial of service condition.
