The remote host is running a version of FortiWeb prior or equal to 6.3.15 or 6.4.x prior or equal to 6.4.1. It is, therefore, affected by a multiple heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in web API controllers of FortiWeb. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, by sending a specially crafted HTTP requests to execute arbitrary code or commands in the system.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
