MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker who already holds a privileged (administrative) account on the FortiVoice appliance (CVSS PR:H) - this is the primary limiting factor and rules out anonymous/unauthenticated exploitation. Given that access, the attacker sends crafted requests to an affected endpoint where user input is not neutralized before use in a SQL command (CWE-89), enabling execution of unauthorized code or commands. Affected deployments are FortiVoice 7.2.0 through 7.2.2, 7.0.0 through 7.0.7, all 6.4 versions, and all 6.0 versions; no user interaction (UI:N) and no special non-default configuration is indicated. The high privilege prerequisite means realistic risk is confined to insider abuse or post-credential-compromise escalation rather than mass remote exploitation. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects a network-reachable SQL injection with low attack complexity but a high privilege requirement (PR:H) - the attacker must already hold an authenticated, privileged administrative account on FortiVoice. This gating factor substantially reduces real-world risk: the flaw is not usable by an anonymous internet attacker but rather represents privilege abuse or a post-compromise escalation vector, where a privileged admin gains code/command execution (C:H/I:H/A:H) beyond the intended interface. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC were provided in the intelligence set, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active exploitation. There is no SSVC decision data provided. The signals are internally consistent (vendor Fortinet PSIRT-issued, single advisory), with the main tension being that PR:H + no exploit signals point to this being a lower operational priority than the 'High' 7.2 score suggests in isolation - realistic priority is moderate, driven by Fortinet's brand exposure rather than by any confirmed exploitation. Note the description's phrase 'execute unauthorized code or commands' extends impact beyond pure data disclosure into command execution, which justifies the C:H/I:H/A:H triad for a CWE-89 issue. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has obtained privileged administrative credentials on a FortiVoice appliance (via phishing, credential reuse, or an insider) sends crafted requests to a vulnerable administrative endpoint, injecting SQL that the backend fails to neutralize. Because the flaw permits execution of unauthorized code or commands, the attacker escalates from database manipulation to executing commands on the appliance, fully compromising the VoIP/PBX system. No public POC or exploit code was identified in the provided intelligence. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 25, 2026
Authenticated attackers with administrative privileges can exploit a SQL injection flaw in Fortinet FortiVoice to execute unauthorized code or commands, per Fortinet PSIRT advisory FG-IR-25-362. Affected versions include FortiVoice 7.2.0 through 7.2.2, 7.0.0 through 7.0.7, and all 6.4 and 6.0 releases. The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects network reachability with low complexity but requires high privileges, limiting realistic risk to insider abuse or post-compromise escalation; no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Fortinet advisory FG-IR-25-362 at https://fortiguard.fortinet.com/psirt/FG-IR-25-362 is the primary source for patch information; apply the vendor-released fixes as specified there. Exact fixed versions are not provided in the available data, so consult the advisory. Until patching is possible, restrict access to the FortiVoice administrative interface to trusted networks and enforce strong authentication with multi-factor authentication for all privileged accounts, because exploitation requires a high-privilege account (PR:H). Monitor logs for unusual SQL queries or command execution attempts. Disabling the web management interface or limiting it to internal IPs reduces exposure but may impact administration. Since no public exploit is identified at time of analysis, proactive patching and strict access controls are the primary defenses.

Technical ContextAI · show details
FortiVoice is Fortinet's unified communications and IP PBX platform. The vulnerability is a CWE-89 SQL injection: improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command. Crafted requests to an affected endpoint allow an attacker to manipulate database queries, leading to execution of unauthorized code or commands. According to the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), the attack is network-reachable with low complexity, requires high privileges (PR:H), needs no user interaction, does not change scope, and has high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. The CPE entries cpe:2.3:a:fortinet:fortivoice (with wildcard version fields) identify the affected product family. Because the attacker must already hold a privileged account, the injection point is likely in an administrative interface or function rather than an unauthenticated public endpoint.

DescriptionCVE.org
An improper neutralization of special elements used in an sql command ('sql injection') vulnerability in Fortinet FortiVoice 7.2.0 through 7.2.2, FortiVoice 7.0.0 through 7.0.7, FortiVoice 6.4 all versions, FortiVoice 6.0 all versions may allow an authenticated privileged attacker to execute unauthorized code or commands via crafted requests
Executive ViewAI
Fortinet FortiVoice deployments are exposed to a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability that could let an attacker with administrative credentials execute unauthorized code or commands, potentially compromising voice communications and connected systems. With no public exploit identified and no vendor patch released, the practical business risk is concentrated in insider threat or post-compromise escalation involving privileged accounts. Leadership should prioritize privileged access controls and continuous monitoring for FortiVoice environments until a fix is available.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; restrict administrative access to trusted networks, enforce MFA, minimize and audit privileged accounts, monitor for anomalous SQL activity and administrative changes, and apply any workarounds in Fortinet PSIRT advisory FG-IR-25-362.
