CVE-2026-70468

NVD analysis in progress

A authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel vulnerability in Fortinet FortiManager 7.6.1, FortiManager 7.4.3 through 7.4.5, FortiManager 7.2.5 through 7.2.9, FortiManager Cloud 7.6.1, FortiManager Cloud 7.4.3 through 7.4.5, FortiManager Cloud 7.2.5 through 7.2.9 may allow attacker to improper access control via <insert attack vector here>

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim. The attack does require particular conditions, which makes it less systematic.
Impact
An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
