FortiOS 7.0.6 release date

[dtesarik]

Hello,

Do you have information about release date FortiOS 7.0.6? Our security team requests a fix for CVE-2022-0778. The solution is to upgrade to 7.2 or 7.0.6 https://www.fortiguard.com/psirt/FG-IR-22-059
I don't want to install 7.2 in a production environment.

Thank you

Hello,

Has there been an updated ETA for 7.0.6? We are waiting on it as it is supposed to fix a bug with conserve mode activated due to high memory and the WAD process. 

Thank you!

Dear @mrauch ,

The new ETA for FortiOS 7.0.6 is the middle of June, but keep in mind the date may change (as it has changed) from the D&R team.

Hi Matt,

Same here, but until we can perform the upgrade to 7.0.6, we're using a script that frequently restarts the WAD (I presume you're in the same boat):
