Introduction to FGT_100D-v6-build1343-FORTINET-6.2.13.out Software
This firmware package (v6.2.13-build1343) delivers essential security patches and performance optimizations for FortiGate 100D firewalls running FortiOS 6.2.x. Designed to address 14 CVEs identified in previous versions – including critical vulnerabilities in SSL-VPN and IPv6 routing subsystems – it maintains backward compatibility with SD-WAN configurations managed through FortiManager 6.4.0+.
Optimized for mid-sized enterprise networks, this build resolves memory allocation issues in deep packet inspection modules while improving threat detection accuracy by 19% compared to v6.2.12. Officially released on May 10, 2025, it introduces enhanced TLS 1.3 inspection capabilities for encrypted traffic analysis.
