VAR-200511-0135

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:10

Multiple interpretation error in Fortinet 2.48.0.0 allows remote attackers to bypass virus scanning via a file such as BAT, HTML, and EML with an "MZ" magic byte sequence which is normally associated with EXE, which causes the file to be treated as a safe type that could still be executed as a dangerous file type by applications on the end system, as demonstrated by a "triple headed" program that contains EXE, EML, and HTML content, aka the "magic byte bug.". Fortinet is prone to a security bypass vulnerability. TheHacker is an antivirus engine
