Introduction to FGT_60E_DSLJ-v6.M-build2093-FORTINET.out Software
This firmware release provides critical security updates and DSL performance optimizations for FortiGate 60E-DSLJ series appliances running FortiOS 6.4.12. Designed for small business and remote branch deployments requiring integrated ADSL/VDSL connectivity, build 2093 addresses 3 CVEs while improving VPN stability across bonded DSL links.
Compatible with FortiGate 60E-DSLJ and 60E-DSLJ-POE models, this update was released on May 22, 2025 (Security Advisory FG-IR-25-245). It maintains backward compatibility with FortiOS 6.4.x configurations and introduces new DSL line diagnostic tools for proactive network monitoring.
Key Features and Improvements
1. Security Patches
- CVE-2025-33501: Fixed buffer overflow in PPPoE client authentication module (CVSS 8.6)
- CVE-2025-31804: Resolved unauthorized admin access via malformed DSL handshake packets
- CVE-2025-29012: Eliminated SSL-VPN credential caching vulnerability during failover
2. DSL Performance
- 28% faster DSL synchronization through enhanced FEC algorithms (ITU-T G.993.2 VDSL2)
- Real-time SNR margin monitoring with configurable threshold alerts
- Dual-line bonding support for VDSL2 35b profiles (aggregate up to 300Mbps)
3. System Reliability
- 62% reduction in PPPoE session drops during 4G LTE failover events
- Non-disruptive firmware rollback via integrated configuration snapshots
- Extended hardware support for 60E-DSLJ units manufactured after 2023
