01

What, why and how

An insertion of sensitive information into sent data vulnerability [CWE-201] in FortiOS 7.6.0, 7.4.0 through 7.4.4 may allow an attacker in a man-in-the-middle position to retrieve the RADIUS accounting server shared secret via intercepting accounting-requests.

What

An insertion of sensitive information into sent data vulnerability [CWE-201] in FortiOS 7.6.0, 7.4.0 through 7.4.4 may allow an attacker in a man-in-the-middle position to retrieve the RADIUS accounting server shared secret via intercepting accounting-requests.

Why

The code transmits data to another actor, but a portion of the data includes sensitive information that should not be accessible to that actor.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may obtain information outside the intended access boundary.

Why

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
a network path → Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data → obtain information outside the intended access boundary
Attack surface
Network
Privileges required
None: unauthenticated exploitation is possible
User interaction
None
Attack complexity
High: exploitation depends on specific conditions
Security boundary
Unchanged: impact remains within the vulnerable component's security authority
Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-201 ↗

CWE-201: Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data. The code transmits data to another actor, but a portion of the data includes sensitive information that should not be accessible to that actor.
