Introduction to FGT_2000E-v7.0.7.F-build0367-FORTINET.out

This enterprise-grade firmware package delivers ​​FortiOS 7.0.7​​ for FortiGate 2000E series firewalls, addressing critical security vulnerabilities while enhancing threat intelligence capabilities for high-throughput networks. Designed for large-scale data centers and MSSP environments, build 0367 implements NIST-recommended cryptographic standards and optimizes SD-WAN performance metrics.

The 2000E series targets organizations requiring 100Gbps+ firewall throughput, with validated compatibility for ​​FortiSwitch 5000 series​​ and ​​FortiAP 434F access points​​. This release follows Fortinet’s Q3 2024 security advisories, specifically resolving CVE-2024-23121 (CVSS 8.7) – a heap overflow vulnerability in SSL-VPN handlers.
