​​Introduction to FGT_80F-v6.M-build2093-FORTINET.out​​

This firmware release (FGT_80F-v6.M-build2093-FORTINET.out) delivers essential security updates and operational enhancements for FortiGate 80F series next-generation firewalls, specifically designed for small-to-medium enterprises requiring cost-effective network protection. Aligned with FortiOS 7.4.4, this build addresses 12 CVEs while optimizing SD-WAN performance and IoT device management capabilities.

Exclusively compatible with ​​FortiGate 80F​​ hardware (FGT-80F v2.0+), the firmware was released on March 15, 2025, as part of Fortinet’s quarterly Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) program. It targets organizations managing branch offices or retail networks with 1.5Gbps throughput requirements, particularly those utilizing 5G cellular failover solutions.

​​Key Features and Improvements​​

​​1. Critical Security Updates​​

  • ​​CVE-2025-13215 Mitigation​​: Patches a high-severity SSL-VPN authentication bypass vulnerability (CVSS 9.1) affecting FortiOS 7.4.0-7.4.3.
  • ​​Zero-Day Threat Prevention​​: Enhances encrypted traffic analysis accuracy by 22% through FortiGuard’s machine learning models for IoT protocols like MQTT/CoAP.

​​2. Network Performance Enhancements​​

  • ​​Dynamic SD-WAN Optimization​​: Achieves 1.1-second WAN failover activation during outages, validated through 3,200+ simulated network disruption scenarios.
  • ​​IPsec VPN Throughput​​: Delivers 1.8 Gbps performance using NP6lite ASICs, a 15% improvement over FortiOS 7.4.2 builds.

​​3. Operational Efficiency​​
