CVE-2020-29019
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in FortiWeb 6.3.0 through 6.3.7 and version before 6.2.4 may allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to crash the httpd daemon thread by sending a request with a crafted cookie header.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.11%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
