An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-14191 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Fortinet Fortiweb. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-14191/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-14191/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-14191","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-14191/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-14191","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5xg4-jxh8-j4g8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Fortinet FortiWeb","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass signed user cookie protection in FortiWeb by removing the session cookie, allowing unauthorized access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"fortiweb","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"An Improper Access Control vulnerability in Fortinet FortiWeb 5.6.0 up to but not including 6.1.0 under \"Signed Security Mode\", allows attacker to bypass the signed user cookie protection by removing the FortiWeb own protection session cookie.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Auth bypass in FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2017-14191","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"fortinet:fortiweb","products":["fortinet:fortiweb"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-14192"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in FortiOS","id":"CVE-2017-14190"},"products":["FortiWeb"],"published":"2018-03-20","related":[{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Fortinet FortiWeb SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2025-25257","kev_date_added":"2025-07-18","published":"2025-07-17"},{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"Fortinet FortiWeb Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2025-64446","kev_date_added":"2025-11-14","published":"2025-11-14"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Fortinet FortiWeb OS Command Injection","id":"CVE-2025-58034","kev_date_added":"2025-11-18","published":"2025-11-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in Fortinet FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2020-29015","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-01-14"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Fortinet FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2020-29016","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-01-14"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2021-42756","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-16"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2025-59719","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-09"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-25","vendors":["Fortinet, Inc."]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass signed user cookie protection in FortiWeb by removing the session cookie, allowing unauthorized access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-14191/"}
