## Overview
Fortinet products are some of the most battle-tested appliances protecting enterprise networks today — and ironically, the moment a Forti appliance becomes vulnerable, the blast radius is catastrophic. In late 2025, one of the most dangerous vulnerabilities ever discovered in FortiWeb surfaced: CVE-2025-64446, a chaining vulnerability that combines:
- Path Traversal
- Internal CGI handler exposure
- Authentication Bypass via header forging
- Privilege escalation to full administrative control
All without authentication.
All via a single HTTP request.
All remotely exploitable.
