Description This article describes why traffic logs can be found showing HTTP requests to the /fwbbot_check URL, even though the backend server does not have this path.
Scope FortiWeb.
Solution

This path is related to the ML Bot detection feature where when the Real Browser Enforcement verification method is used, FortiWeb injects a javascript to verify whether the user is a normal browser and not a bot so that the collected samples can be filtered.

However, FortiWeb will only insert JavaScript into pages where the response is HTML.
