A Vulnerability has been discovered in Fortinet FortiClientEMS that could allow for arbitrary code execution. FortiClientEMS is a centralized management platform for deploying, configuring, monitoring, and enforcing security policies across numerous endpoints (computers) running the FortiClient agent.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the affected service account. Depending on the privileges associated with the service account an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Service accounts that are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
