Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-43068 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Fortinet FortiAuthenticator. 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-2021-43068/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-43068/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-43068","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-43068/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-43068","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7c78-24gm-9rqf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FortiAuthenticator","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass two-factor authentication via the RADIUS login portal in FortiAuthenticator, compromising account security.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"fortiauthenticator","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:P/RL:X/RC:X","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"A improper authentication in Fortinet FortiAuthenticator version 6.4.0 allows user to bypass the second factor of authentication via a RADIUS login portal.","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 Fortinet FortiAuthenticator","id":"CVE-2021-43068","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Not used","id":"CVE-2021-43069"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Fortinet FortiAuthenticator","id":"CVE-2021-43067"},"products":["Fortinet FortiAuthenticator"],"published":"2021-12-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Missing authorization in FortiAuthenticator","id":"CVE-2026-44277","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-12"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6990","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-04-30"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Information disclosure in Fortinet FortiAuthenticator","id":"CVE-2021-43067","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-08"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in Fortinet FortiSandbox, FortiAuthenticator","id":"CVE-2021-22124","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-04"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1455","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-02-03"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Information disclosure in FortiAuthenticator","id":"CVE-2025-53379","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-14"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1458","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-02-03"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"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"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass two-factor authentication via the RADIUS login portal in FortiAuthenticator, compromising account security.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-43068/"}
