An incorrect permission assignment for critical resource vulnerability [CWE-732] in FortiClient for Linux version 6.0.8 and below, 6.2.9 and below, 6.4.7 and below, 7.0.2 and below may allow an unauthenticated attacker to access sensitive information in log files and directories via symbolic links.

An improper input validation vulnerability in FortiClient for Linux 6.4.x before 6.4.3, FortiClient for Linux 6.2.x before 6.2.9 may allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the host operating system as root via tricking the user into connecting to a network with a malicious name.

An exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor vulnerability [CWE-200] in FortiClient for Linux version 7.0.2 and below, 6.4.7 and below and 6.2.9 and below may allow an unauthenticated attacker to access the confighandler webserver via external binaries.

A combination of a use of hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability [CWE-321] in FortiClientEMS 7.0.1 and below, 6.4.6 and below and an improper certificate validation vulnerability [CWE-297] in FortiClientWindows, FortiClientLinux and FortiClientMac 7.0.1 and below, 6.4.6 and below may allow an unauthenticated and network adjacent attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack between the EMS and the FCT via the telemetry protocol.

A privilege escalation vulnerability in FortiClient for Linux 6.2.1 and below may allow a user with low privilege to overwrite system files as root with arbitrary content through system backup file via specially crafted "BackupConfig" type IPC client requests to the fctsched process. Further more, FortiClient for Linux 6.2.2 and below allow low privilege user write the system backup file under root privilege through GUI thus can cause root system file overwrite.

A stack buffer overflow vulnerability in FortiClient for Linux 6.2.1 and below may allow a user with low privilege to cause FortiClient processes running under root priviledge crashes via sending specially crafted "StartAvCustomScan" type IPC client requests to the fctsched process due the argv data not been well sanitized.

A Denial of service (DoS) vulnerability in FortiClient for Linux 6.2.1 and below may allow an user with low privilege to cause FortiClient processes running under root privilege crashes via sending specially crafted IPC client requests to the fctsched process due the nanomsg not been correctly validated.

A privilege escalation vulnerability in FortiClient for Linux 6.2.1 and below may allow an user with low privilege to run system commands under root privilege via injecting specially crafted "ExportLogs" type IPC client requests to the fctsched process.
