It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-40679 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Fortinet FortiADC. 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-2022-40679/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40679/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40679","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40679/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40679","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fjfr-24j5-f8cq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Fortinet network appliances","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can execute unauthorized OS commands on FortiADC and FortiDDoS devices via crafted arguments.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"fortiadc","vendor":"fortinet"},{"product":"fortiddos","vendor":"fortinet"},{"product":"fortiddos-f","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:X/RC:R","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"An improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command vulnerability [CWE-78] in FortiADC 5.x all versions, 6.0 all versions, 6.1 all versions, 6.2.0 through 6.2.4, 7.0.0 through 7.0.3, 7.1.0; FortiDDoS 4.x all versions, 5.0 all versions, 5.1 all versions, 5.2 all versions, 5.3 all versions, 5.4 all versions, 5.5 all versions, 5.6 all versions and FortiDDoS-F 6.4.0, 6.3.0 through 6.3.3, 6.2.0 through 6.2.2, 6.1.0 through 6.1.4 may allow an authenticated attacker to execute unauthorized commands via specifically crafted arguments to existing commands.","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":"Command injection in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2022-40679","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in FortiOS","id":"CVE-2022-40680"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in FortiNAC","id":"CVE-2022-40678"},"products":["FortiADC","FortiDDoS","FortiDDoS-F"],"published":"2023-04-11","related":[{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Fortinet FortiOS and FortiADC Improper Access Control","id":"CVE-2018-13374","kev_date_added":"2022-09-08","published":"2019-01-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Fortinet FortiADC","id":"CVE-2022-38374","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-02"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2023-37933","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-11"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Command injection in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2022-39947","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-03"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Fortinet FortiADC","id":"CVE-2022-35851","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-02"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2023-26205","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Command injection in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2023-26210","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-13"}],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-23","vendors":["Fortinet"]},"summary":"An authenticated attacker can execute unauthorized OS commands on FortiADC and FortiDDoS devices via crafted arguments.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40679/"}
