SNMP v3 Save failed - invalid characters (`, $, >, <, &, ;, |) found

[rz5]

Hi,

On FortiSIEM 7.3.2, I cannot create an SNMPv3 credential, I always get the following error: Save failed - invalid characters (`, $, >, <, &, ;, |) found

Has anyone encountered this error? What could be the problem?

Thanks,

Zoltan

Hi Zoltan

Can you share the full command you are using?

[rz5]

I tried on GUI:

Trying to do the same on FSM 7.2.5 and it works fine.

[rz5]

Yes, it worked for me with the previous version too. Not on 7.3.2

I don't find such known bug in release notes. Then you probably discovered a new bug in 7.3.2.

I suggest to open a ticket so Fortinet can fix it in the next patch, and they may provide you a workaround meanwhile.

 I opened a ticket, but I haven't received a solution yet.

Thanks,

Zoltan

Hi @rz5 ,

I think that the message is pretty clear.  Do you use any following special characters in your password?

(`, $, >, <, &, ;, |) 

[rz5]

of course, I didn't

[AEK]

I tried them in password and they are accepted.
