1.0 Introduction

Fortinet released a security advisory regarding the CVE-2022-40684 vulnerability that is affecting multiple Fortinet devices and services.

2.0 Impact
An authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel vulnerability [CWE-288] in FortiOS, FortiProxy, and FortiSwitchManager may allow an unauthenticated attacker to perform operations on the administrative interface via specially crafted HTTP or HTTPS requests.

3.0 Affected Products

• FortiOS version 7.2.0 through 7.2.1
• FortiOS version 7.0.0 through 7.0.6
• FortiProxy version 7.2.0
• FortiProxy version 7.0.0 through 7.0.6
• FortiSwitchManager version 7.2.0
• FortiSwitchManager version 7.0.0
• FortiOS versions 5.x, 6.x are NOT impacted.

4.0 Indicators of Compromise

Exploitation Status:

• Fortinet is aware of an instance where this vulnerability was exploited and recommends immediately validating your systems against the following indicator of compromise in the device's logs:

           user="Local_Process_Access" 

           Please contact customer support for assistance.

• Fortinet is aware of instances where this vulnerability was exploited to download the config file from the targeted devices and to add a malicious super_admin account called  "fortigate-tech-support":

           # show system admin
          edit "fortigate-tech-support"
          set accprofile "super_admin"
          set vdom "root"
          set password ENC [...]
          next

          Please contact customer support for assistance.

Workaround:

• FortiOS:

           Disable HTTP/HTTPS administrative interface

           OR

           Limit IP addresses that can reach the administrative interface:
           config firewall address
           edit "my_allowed_addresses"
           set subnet <MY IP> <MY SUBNET>
           end

          Then create an Address Group:
          config firewall addrgrp
          edit "MGMT_IPs"
          set member "my_allowed_addresses"
          end

          Create the Local in Policy to restrict access only to the predefined group on the management interface (here:               port1):

          config firewall local-in-policy
          edit 1
          set intf port1
          set srcaddr "MGMT_IPs"
          set dstaddr "all"
          set action accept
          set service HTTPS HTTP
          set schedule "always"
          set status enable
          next
          edit 2
          set intf "any"
          set srcaddr "all"
          set dstaddr "all"
          set action deny
          set service HTTPS HTTP
          set schedule "always"
          set status enable
          end

          If using non-default ports, create an appropriate service object for GUI administrative access:

          config firewall service custom
          edit GUI_HTTPS
          set tcp-portrange <admin-sport>
          next
          edit GUI_HTTP
          set tcp-portrange <admin-port>
          end

          Use these objects instead of "HTTPS HTTP "in the local-in policy 1 and 2 below.

          UPDATE: When using an HA reserved management interface, the local in policy needs to be configured
          slightly differently - please see: https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-How-to-
          configure-a-local-in-policy-on-a-HA/ta-p/222005

          Please contact customer support for assistance.

• FortiProxy:

          Disable HTTP/HTTPS administrative interface

          OR

          For FortiProxy VM, all versions of FortiProxy appliance 7.0.6:

          Limit IP addresses that can reach the administrative interface (here: port1):

          config system interface
          edit port1
          set dedicated-to management
          set trust-ip-1 <MY IP> <MY SUBNET>
          end

          Please contact customer support for assistance.

• FortiSwitchManager:

          Disable HTTP/HTTPS administrative interface
          Please contact customer support for assistance.

5.0 Recommendations
MyCERT recommends that customers validate their configuration to ensure that no unauthorized changes have been implemented by a malicious third party, regardless of whether they have upgraded. 

MyCERT also strongly recommend system administrators follow the update steps below:

• Please upgrade to FortiOS version 7.2.2 or above
• Please upgrade to FortiOS version 7.0.7 or above
• Please upgrade to FortiProxy version 7.2.1 or above
• Please upgrade to FortiProxy version 7.0.7 or above
