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-2023-23783 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-2023-23783/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23783/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-23783","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23783/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-23783","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w3gc-crw4-rmrm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Fortinet FortiWeb","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute unauthorized code or commands via crafted arguments due to unsafe format string usage in FortiWeb.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"fortiweb","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:F/RL:U/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-134","name":"Use of Externally-Controlled Format String"}],"description":"A use of externally-controlled format string in Fortinet FortiWeb version 7.0.0 through 7.0.1, FortiWeb 6.4 all versions allows attacker to execute unauthorized code or commands via specially crafted command arguments.","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":"Code injection in FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2023-23783","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"fortinet:fortiweb","products":["fortinet:fortiweb"],"type":"code_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2023-23784"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in FortiWeb","id":"CVE-2023-23782"},"products":["FortiWeb"],"published":"2023-02-16","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":"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":"Attackers can execute unauthorized code or commands via crafted arguments due to unsafe format string usage in FortiWeb.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23783/"}
