CVE-2016-4968
The linkreport/tmp/admin_global page in Fortinet FortiWan (formerly AscernLink) before 4.2.5 allows remote authenticated users to discover administrator cookies via a GET request.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.68%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
