CVE-2026-126223: Fortinet FortiAnalyzer stack-based buffer overflow in JSON-RPC API

CVE-2026-126223 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.2 · Published 2026-11-11

FortiAnalyzer and FortiManager are enterprise management and logging systems that aggregate security events and manage firewall configurations across networks. A stack-based buffer overflow in their JSON-RPC API allows authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary code or crash the system by sending specially crafted requests. An attacker with admin credentials could gain complete control of the management infrastructure or disrupt network monitoring and policy enforcement.
