| Scope | FortiManager v7.4,v7.6. |
| Solution |
The provided .pfx file is encrypted using cipher RC2-40-CBC, which is considered too weak and is not supported on FortiManager.
FortiManager does not utilize any encryption algorithms that are disabled by default in libssl due to security concerns. Generate the .pfx file using a stronger encryption algorithm. |
