Introduction to FGT_200E-v6-build0484-FORTINET.out.zip

This firmware package delivers FortiOS 6.4.12 for FortiGate 200E series next-generation firewalls, addressing 15 documented vulnerabilities while optimizing network performance for mid-sized enterprises. Compiled on April 4, 2024 (build 0484), the update targets hardware platforms including FortiGate 200E/200EF/200E-3G4G, designed for branch office and distributed network security deployments.

The firmware maintains backward compatibility with FortiOS 6.4.x configurations but requires NP6 security processors for full threat detection capabilities. It resolves critical CVEs disclosed in Q1 2024 while introducing hardware-accelerated TLS 1.3 decryption for improved HTTPS traffic visibility.

Critical Security Patches & Functional Upgrades

​​1. Vulnerability Remediation​​

  • Fixes authentication bypass flaw (CVE-2024-23157) in SSL-VPN web portal
  • Addresses buffer overflow risk (CVE-2024-23315) in IPv6 packet reassembly module
  • Updates cryptographic libraries to OpenSSL 3.0.14 for FIPS 140-3 compliance

​​2. Performance Enhancements​​

  • Boosts IPS inspection throughput by 20% on 10GbE interfaces
  • Reduces SD-WAN policy processing latency by 18 milliseconds
  • Supports 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) radio profiles for FortiAP 431F integration

​​3. Management & Automation​​

  • Adds REST API endpoints for Azure Sentinel threat log integration
  • Introduces dark mode toggle in web-based management console
  • Improves FortiAnalyzer log export speeds by 30% during peak traffic

Hardware Compatibility & System Requirements

Supported Models Minimum RAM Storage Capacity Firmware Prerequisite
FortiGate 200E 8GB DDR4 256GB SSD FortiOS 6.4.9
FortiGate 200EF 16GB DDR4 512GB RAID SSD FortiOS 6.4.10
FortiGate 200E-3G4G 8GB DDR4 256GB eMMC FortiOS 6.4.11

This build maintains compatibility with FortiSwitch 248E/FortiAP 431F devices running FortiLink OS 4.4.3 or newer. Dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 configurations require policy revalidation when upgrading from builds prior to 0419.

Operational Considerations

  1. Maximum 1,024 concurrent SSL-VPN users per VDOM instance
  2. Hardware-accelerated deep packet inspection limited to first 4 NP6 cores
  3. Requires active FortiGuard subscription for threat intelligence updates
  4. Web filtering categories may reset during the upgrade process
