Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-3129 is a cross-site scripting issue in Fortinet FortiWeb 5.7.1 and earlier. The reported weakness is improper sanitization of a POST parameter in the FortiWeb Site Publisher feature, allowing unauthorized code or command execution in that context. Organizations running Fortinet FortiWeb 5.7.1 or earlier are potentially exposed, especially where Site Publisher is enabled or reachable by users who could be targeted through the web interface. Treat this as a targeted appliance hygiene issue. It is not known to be actively exploited from the supplied evidence, but affected FortiWeb systems should be identified and brought under vendor-supported remediation. Mitigation focus: Check Fortinet PSIRT FG-IR-17-076 for vendor upgrade or workaround guidance.; Inventory FortiWeb appliances and identify versions 5.7.1 or earlier.; Restrict access to FortiWeb administrative and Site Publisher interfaces..
