DescriptionCVE.org

A improper access control vulnerability in Fortinet FortiSandbox 5.0.0 through 5.0.5, FortiSandbox 4.4.0 through 4.4.8, FortiSandbox Cloud 5.0.4 through 5.0.5, FortiSandbox PaaS 5.0.4 through 5.0.5 may allow attacker to access sensitive information via crafted HTTP requests.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated remote access control bypass in Fortinet FortiSandbox 4.2.x through 5.0.x - and its Cloud and PaaS variants - allows network-reachable attackers to retrieve sensitive information and disrupt availability by sending crafted HTTP requests, with no credentials or user interaction required. Fortinet's confirmed CVSS temporal metrics include E:P (proof-of-concept exploit code exists) alongside RL:O (official remediation available) and RC:C (confirmed), establishing this as an actively documented, patchable risk against sandboxing infrastructure that processes enterprise malware submissions. …
