Short explanation

CVE-2026-26035 is a high-severity improper authentication vulnerability in FortiWeb versions up to 8.0.2 and 7.0.12. It enables remote unauthenticated access with random credentials. Patch status is UNKNOWN. No public exploit or active exploitation is confirmed.

Why does it matter?

This vulnerability allows attackers to gain full access to FortiWeb interfaces without authentication, posing a significant risk to network security. Without a confirmed patch, organizations remain exposed until a verified update is applied.

What should be done?

  • Ensure FortiWeb version is updated to 8.0.3 or later, or 7.6.7 or later, or 7.4.12 or later, or 7.2.13 or later, or 7.0.13 or later.
  • Follow official Fortinet advisory at https://fortiguard.fortinet.com/psirt/FG-IR-26-158 for version-specific guidance.
  • No public exploit or active exploitation is confirmed; however, the vulnerability remains exploitable.
