Introduction to FGT_60D-v6-build0365-FORTINET.out

This firmware release delivers critical security patches and performance optimizations for FortiGate 60D series firewalls running FortiOS v6. Designed as a maintenance update for enterprise networks requiring extended hardware lifecycle support, build0365 resolves 8 CVEs while improving VPN stability for SMB environments.

Compatible exclusively with 60D hardware models (FG-60D/FG-60D-POE), this Q1 2025 release maintains backward compatibility with FortiOS 6.4.x configurations. System administrators managing remote branch offices will benefit from its enhanced 4G failover logic and reduced memory footprint during DPI operations.

  • Mitigated buffer overflow risks in FGFM protocol implementation (CVE-2024-26010)

​​2. Hardware Performance Optimization​​

  • 18% faster IPsec VPN throughput with AES256-GCM encryption
  • Reduced 4G modem initialization time to 9.2 seconds (Huawei E3372/E8278 tested)

​​3. Network Reliability Enhancements​​

  • Improved SD-WAN path failover detection (300ms → 180ms threshold)
  • Added TCP MSS auto-calculation for PPPoE/4G WAN interfaces

​​4. Management Improvements​​
