CVSS v3.1
Official Description
The FTP component in FortiGate 2.8 running FortiOS 2.8MR10 and v3beta, and other versions before 3.0 MR1, allows remote attackers to bypass the Fortinet FTP anti-virus engine by sending a STOR command and uploading a file before the FTP server response has been sent, as demonstrated using LFTP.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2005-3057 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
