Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Fortinet FortiADC versions 7.2.0 and prior to 7.1.1

Description A relative path traversal issue allows a privileged attacker to delete arbitrary directories from the underlying file system via crafted CLI commands. This issue is related to errors in processing relative paths to directories, which can be exploited to gain read, modify, or delete access to data.

Recommendations For Fortinet FortiADC versions 7.2.0 and prior to 7.1.1, consider restricting access to the CLI to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the use of crafted CLI commands that could be used to delete arbitrary directories.
