CVE-2015-1458
Fortinet FortiAuthenticator 3.0.0 allows local users to bypass intended restrictions and gain privileges by creating /tmp/privexec/dbgcore_enable_shell_access and executing the "shell" command.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.45%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
