Released under FortiOS 6.4.7 maintenance updates in Q2 2024, it resolves 14 documented vulnerabilities while improving hardware resource efficiency. Compatible with FG-140E and FG-140E-POE hardware variants, this build introduces enhanced cellular failover capabilities and complies with FIPS 140-2 Level 1 standards for regulated industries requiring encrypted communications.


​Key Technical Enhancements​

  1. ​Cellular Network Reliability​

    • Reduces 4G/LTE failover time by 35% through optimized PPP session management
    • Adds support for Telstra 4G modems (CAT6) with dynamic APN configuration
  2. ​Security Infrastructure Upgrades​

    • Patches buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2024-32812) in IPv4 packet defragmentation module
    • Mitigates XSS risks in web administration interface via Content Security Policy (CSP) enforcement
  3. ​Network Protocol Improvements​

    • Enhances SD-WAN application steering accuracy with 200+ updated SaaS application signatures
    • Improves VoIP call quality through SIP ALG session timeout optimizations
  4. ​Diagnostic Tools​

    • Introduces real-time modem signal strength monitoring via diagnose sys modem signal command
    • Enhances packet capture precision for LTE interface traffic analysis

​Compatibility Matrix​

Component Supported Models/Version Requirements
FortiGate Hardware FG-140E, FG-140E-POE 8GB RAM
FortiManager 7.2.3 – 7.4.8 Build 8131+ recommended
FortiAnalyzer 7.0.7 – 7.2.12 200GB/day log capacity
4G Modems Telstra 4GX CAT6, Huawei E3372 USB 3.0 interface required

​Operational Limitations​

  1. ​Feature Restrictions​

    • SD-WAN application steering requires FortiManager 7.4.5+ for policy synchronization
    • Simultaneous PPPoE and 4G failover limited to 2 interface groups
  2. ​Compatibility Notes​

    • Incompatible with FortiClient 6.0.x endpoints (requires 6.4.10+)
    • Firmware rollback to versions prior to build 1803 requires TFTP recovery
