Language:

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-24-184 advisory.

 - An Incorrect User Management vulnerability [CWE-286] in FortiWeb version 7.6.2 and below, version 7.4.6 and below, version 7.2.10 and below, version 7.0.11 and below widgets dashboard may allow an authenticated attacker with at least read-only admin permission to perform operations on the dashboard of other administrators via crafted requests. (CVE-2024-46671)

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

Solution

For 7.0.x, see vendor advisory. For 7.2.x, upgrade to FortiWeb version 7.2.11 or later. For 7.4.x, upgrade to FortiWeb version 7.4.7 or later. For 7.6.x, upgrade to FortiWeb version 7.6.3 or later.
