Synopsis

Fortinet Firewall is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FortiWeb installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FG-IR-22-326 advisory.

 - An improper certificate validation vulnerability [CWE-295] in FortiWeb 7.2.0 through 7.2.1, 7.0 all versions, 6.4 all versions and 6.3 all versions may allow a remote and unauthenticated attacker in a Man- in-the-Middle position to decipher and/or tamper with the communication channel between the device and different endpoints used to fetch data for Web Application Firewall (WAF).

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
