CVE-2026-25815

Published: Feb 5, 2026

Modified: Feb 9, 2026

PUBLISHED

CVSS v3.1

3.2

LOW

Description

Fortinet FortiOS through 7.6.6 allows attackers to decrypt LDAP credentials stored in device configuration files, as exploited in the wild from 2025-12-16 through 2026 (by default, the encryption key is the same across all customers' installations). NOTE: the Supplier's position is that the instance of CWE-1394 is not a vulnerability because customers "are supposed to enable" a non-default option that eliminates the weakness. However, that non-default option can disrupt functionality as shown in the "Managing FortiGates with private data encryption" document, and is therefore intentionally not a default option.
