CVE-2024-36505

Status: AnalyzedMedium (5.5)—

An improper access control vulnerability [CWE-284] in FortiOS 7.4.0 through 7.4.3, 7.2.5 through 7.2.7, 7.0.12 through 7.0.14 and 6.4.x may allow an attacker who has already successfully obtained write access to the underlying system (via another hypothetical exploit) to bypass the file integrity checking system.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
