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-2023-42788 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Fortinet Fortianalyzer. 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-2023-42788/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-42788/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-42788","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-42788/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-42788","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-373p-j926-5m9h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Fortinet network management","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker with low privileges can execute unauthorized code via crafted CLI arguments in FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"fortianalyzer","vendor":"fortinet"},{"product":"fortimanager","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":7.6,"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:F/RL:X/RC:X","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 ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability [CWE-78] in FortiManager \u0026 FortiAnalyzer version 7.4.0, version 7.2.0 through 7.2.3, version 7.0.0 through 7.0.8, version 6.4.0 through 6.4.12 and version 6.2.0 through 6.2.11 may allow a local attacker with low privileges to execute unauthorized code via specifically crafted arguments to a CLI command","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 FortiAnalyzer","id":"CVE-2023-42788","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"fortinet:fortianalyzer","products":["fortinet:fortianalyzer","fortinet:fortimanager"],"type":"command_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in FortiOS","id":"CVE-2023-42789"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in FortiAnalyzer","id":"CVE-2023-42787"},"products":["FortiAnalyzer","FortiManager"],"published":"2023-10-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"Fortinet Multiple Products Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel","id":"CVE-2026-24858","kev_date_added":"2026-01-27","published":"2026-01-27"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in FortiAnalyzer","id":"CVE-2023-25610","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-24"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, FortiManager","id":"CVE-2021-32603","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer","id":"CVE-2020-12817","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-24"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Auth bypass in FortiOS","id":"CVE-2024-48886","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-01-14"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, FortiManager","id":"CVE-2022-39950","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-02"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Command injection in Fortinet FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, FortiPortal","id":"CVE-2021-26104","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-06"}],"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":"2025-12-16","vendors":["Fortinet"]},"summary":"A local attacker with low privileges can execute unauthorized code via crafted CLI arguments in FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-42788/"}
