The remote host is running a version of FortiOS prior or equal to 6.2.9 or 6.4.x prior or equal to 6.4.6 or 7.0.0. It is, therefore, affected by a buffer underwriter vulnerability in the firmware verification routine of FortiOS that may allow an attacker located in the adjacent network to potentially execute arbitrary code via a specifically crafted firmware image.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
