Has anyone seen an issue on FortiGate running v7.0.1 where 127.0.0.1 resolves to a strange hostname in the GUI Log & Report  - Local Traffic?

Thanks

running:  dia test app dnsproxy 13

showed an entry for:  127.0.0.1 (domain=public.popcorn-tracker.org, ttl=77099) in the hostname-resolution cache

 

running:  dia test app dnsproxy 14

cleared the cache

 

Issue is resolved.

 

 

Suspect an attempt was made to try to resolve that FQDN, it passed through the FGT, and it "accidentally" cached it.

 

Many thanks to Fortinet discord pabechan for the help
