    This relates to the recent news that OpenSSL in certain version is compromised. And that FortiOS uses OpenSSL code.

    Look for yourself...https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html

    OMG that's a LOT of bugs this year alone. Good to know but bad to use.

     

    @Waleed:

    AFAIK you cannot determine the code version used. No sense in asking Support because if I were FTNT I wouldn't tell for obvious reasons.

     

    'Upgrading' is done by FTNT by recompiling the code against a safe version and publishing that as a patch release.
