Fortinet FortiWeb Zero-Day Vulnerabilities Exploited in the Wild

Fortinet has disclosed two significant vulnerabilities in its FortiWeb product, CVE-2025-58034 and CVE-2025-64446, both of which have been actively exploited in the wild. The first, CVE-2025-58034, is a medium-severity OS command injection flaw that allows authenticated attackers to execute unauthorized code via crafted HTTP requests or CLI commands. The second, CVE-2025-64446, is a critical vulnerability that can be chained with the first to facilitate authentication bypass and further command injection. Fortinet has released patches in version 8.0.2 to address these issues, but the company has faced criticism for its handling and staggered disclosure of the flaws, with some suggesting the delay was to allow customers time to patch before publicizing the risks.

Security researchers, including Orange Cyberdefense, have observed several exploitation campaigns leveraging these vulnerabilities, raising concerns about the potential for widespread compromise of FortiWeb deployments. The U.S. CISA has added the new Fortinet FortiWeb flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, underscoring the urgency for organizations to apply the latest patches. The incidents highlight ongoing risks in supply chain and critical infrastructure security, as attackers increasingly target widely deployed security appliances with zero-day exploits.
