NVD · unedited
An improper neutralization of special elements used in an sql command ('sql injection') vulnerability in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer 7.6.0 through 7.6.4, FortiAnalyzer 7.4.0 through 7.4.7, FortiAnalyzer 7.2 all versions, FortiAnalyzer 7.0 all versions, FortiAnalyzer 6.4 all versions, FortiAnalyzer-BigData 7.6.0, FortiAnalyzer-BigData 7.4.0 through 7.4.4, FortiAnalyzer-BigData 7.2 all versions, FortiAnalyzer-BigData 7.0 all versions, FortiAnalyzer-BigData 6.4 all versions, FortiAnalyzer-BigData 6.2 all versions may allow an authenticated attacker to execute unauthorized code or commands via specifically crafted requests.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in FortiAnalyzer allows authenticated attackers to execute unauthorized code or commands via specifically crafted SQL requests. The vulnerability affects multiple version ranges across FortiAnalyzer and FortiAnalyzer-BigData platforms.

MitigationApply Fortinet security patches to upgrade affected FortiAnalyzer installations to vendor-supported versions. Since authentication is required, ensure compromised credentials are rotated and monitor for unauthorized access.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check FortiAnalyzer version
    Run 'get system status' via CLI or check the System > Settings page in the web UI to identify the exact firmware version installed
    Affected if The installed version falls within 7.4.0 through 7.4.7, 7.6.0 through 7.6.4, or is 6.4.0 through 7.4.7 (for versions below 7.0)
  2. Identify product type
    Check if the installed system is FortiAnalyzer or FortiAnalyzer Big Data by reviewing the system status output or web UI product name
    Affected if The product is FortiAnalyzer Big Data and the version is 6.2.1 through 7.4.4 or exactly 7.6.0
  3. Verify SQL database feature is in use
    Check if the SQL logging or reporting feature is enabled in the system configuration (Log Settings or SQL Settings in the web UI)
    Affected if SQL database features are enabled and the version is vulnerable
  4. Check for exposed admin interfaces
    Review network configuration to determine if the admin GUI or CLI is accessible from untrusted networks
    Affected if The admin interface is exposed to the internet or untrusted networks, increasing the likelihood of credential compromise

The environment is affected if FortiAnalyzer or FortiAnalyzer Big Data is running a version within the affected ranges and the SQL database feature is enabled, making it vulnerable to SQL injection via authenticated requests.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

Fixed in 7.4.57.4.87.6.5
Interim mitigation

Apply Fortinet security patches to upgrade affected FortiAnalyzer installations to vendor-supported versions. Since authentication is required, ensure compromised credentials are rotated and monitor for unauthorized access.

Recommended fix High confidence

FortiAnalyzer: upgrade to 7.4.8 or 7.6.5 (or later); FortiAnalyzer-Big Data: upgrade to 7.4.5 or 7.6.1 (or later)

  1. 1. Identify the exact FortiAnalyzer version currently installed using: 'get system status' in the CLI or via the web UI under System Settings > Dashboard > System Information.
  2. 2. For FortiAnalyzer (standard): If running version 7.4.x (7.4.0 through 7.4.7), upgrade to version 7.4.8 or later. If running version 7.6.x (7.6.0 through 7.6.4), upgrade to version 7.6.5 or later.
  3. 3. For FortiAnalyzer-Big Data: If running version 7.4.x (7.4.0 through 7.4.4), upgrade to version 7.4.5 or later. If running version 7.6.0, upgrade to version 7.6.1 or later.
  4. 4. For versions 7.2.x, 7.0.x, 6.4.x, and 6.2.x, contact Fortinet support for specific patch availability or migration path to a supported version.
  5. 5. Download the firmware from the Fortinet Customer Support Portal: https://customer.fortinet.com/ and review the release notes for upgrade instructions.
  6. 6. Back up the FortiAnalyzer configuration before performing the upgrade.
  7. 7. Upload and install the new firmware via the web UI (System Settings > Firmware) or CLI using 'execute restore' commands, following Fortinet's upgrade procedure.
  8. 8. After upgrade, verify the version and ensure the vulnerability is resolved by confirming the fix is applied.
Caveat Review Fortinet release notes for any configuration changes or migration steps between major versions; some legacy features may require reconfiguration after upgrade.
