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-2023-50179 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-2023-50179/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50179/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-50179","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50179/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-50179","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p8xm-24ph-gvrg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Fortinet FortiADC","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks on SDN connector communications due to improper certificate validation in FortiADC.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"fortiadc","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:F/RL:U/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-295","name":"Improper Certificate Validation"}],"description":"An improper certificate validation vulnerability [CWE-295] in FortiADC 7.4.0, 7.2 all versions, 7.1 all versions, 7.0 all versions may allow a remote and unauthenticated attacker to perform a Man-in-the-Middle attack on the communication channel between the device and public SDN connectors.","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":"Security feature bypass in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2023-50179","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2023-50180"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in FortiADC","id":"CVE-2023-50178"},"products":["FortiADC"],"published":"2024-07-09","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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["Fortinet"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks on SDN connector communications due to improper certificate validation in FortiADC.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50179/"}
