1. Introduction to FGT_60F-v6-build1190-FORTINET.out

The FGT_60F-v6-build1190-FORTINET.out firmware package delivers critical security updates and performance enhancements for Fortinet’s FortiGate 60F series, a compact next-generation firewall optimized for small-to-medium businesses and branch offices. This build addresses vulnerabilities in FortiOS 6.4.x deployments while improving threat detection capabilities through integrated AI-powered security services.

Designed for the fanless desktop FortiGate 60F hardware platform, this release supports FortiOS versions 6.4.9 through 6.4.15. The “v6” designation confirms compatibility with FortiOS 6 architecture, while “build1190” represents cumulative security patches and system optimizations applied since the initial 6.4.x release.


2. Key Features and Improvements

​Security Enhancements​

  • Mitigates 9 CVEs including:
    • CVE-2024-48725 (SSL-VPN buffer overflow)
    • CVE-2024-50130 (improper IPSec key validation)
  • Implements TLS 1.3 deep inspection with <3ms latency overhead
  • FortiSandbox cloud integration for advanced threat detection

​Performance Optimization​

  • 25% throughput increase for SD-WAN traffic (measured at 5 Gbps on FG-60F hardware)
  • 30% reduction in memory usage during concurrent UTM policy enforcement

​Network Management​

  • Enhanced compatibility with FortiManager 7.2.5 for centralized policy orchestration
  • REST API response improvements (40% faster configuration deployment)

​Protocol Support​

  • QUIC protocol analysis for modern web application traffic
  • BGP route convergence optimized to <45 seconds for dynamic networks

3. Compatibility and Requirements

​Component​ ​Supported Specifications​
