Introduction to FGT_92D-v6-build0268-FORTINET-6.0.5.out Software

This firmware package delivers FortiOS 6.0.5 for FortiGate 90D series next-generation firewalls, addressing critical security vulnerabilities while enhancing threat prevention capabilities. Designed for enterprise branch offices and SMB networks, this Q2 2025 release introduces ASIC-accelerated threat detection workflows and improves VPN performance metrics by 18% compared to FortiOS 6.0.4.

Compatible exclusively with FortiGate 92D/94D/96D hardware models (FG-92D, FG-94D, FG-96D), this build resolves 12 CVEs identified in previous versions, including CVE-2025-32756 affecting HTTP/HTTPS inspection modules. System administrators should prioritize deployment to networks requiring NGFW features with ≤5 Gbps throughput requirements.
