Question

High CPU Utilization by httpsd Process After Upgrading to FortiOS 7.6.8

Hi everyone,

After upgrading our FortiGate 201E from 7.4.13

to FortiOS 7.6.8, CPU utilization consistently increases to around 90%, with the httpsd process identified as the primary contributor.

Restarting the httpsd daemon temporarily resolves the issue, but CPU utilization gradually increases again.

Has anyone experienced the same issue after upgrading to FortiOS 7.6.8? Is this a known firmware bug, and are there any recommended workarounds or permanent solutions?

Thank you for your help.

can you try below workaround:

config log gui-display
set resolve-apps disable
end

can you check system event logs if you see continuous admin login event

can you also share

get sys perf status

Thanks, Salon

Helo sir ,

Is this a known bug in FortiOS 7.6.8, or is it normal to require these configuration changes after every firmware upgrade to keep the httpsd process running properly?

Are these settings standard post-upgrade configurations or just temporary workarounds to bypass a firmware bug?

Is there a permanent fix available?

can you confirm for how long the device is stable once you restart httpsd process?
