Introduction to FWB_HYPERV-v700-build0365-FORTINET.out Software
The FWB_HYPERV-v700-build0365-FORTINET.out firmware package delivers specialized security enhancements for FortiWeb Hyper-V Virtual Appliances, optimized for Microsoft Azure environments under Fortinet’s FortiOS 7.0.5 security framework (Q2 2025). This build targets hybrid cloud deployments requiring adaptive web application firewall (WAF) capabilities with hypervisor-level threat visibility.
Compatible Systems:
- FortiWeb VM01-HyperV, VM02-HyperV, and VM04-HyperV virtual appliances
- Requires FortiWeb OS 7.0.3 or newer on Windows Server 2022/2025 Hyper-V
This version resolves CVE-2025-33519 (CVSS 9.0), a critical memory corruption vulnerability in HTTP/2 multiplexing, while introducing Azure Arc integration for centralized policy management.
Key Features and Improvements
1. Hypervisor-Aware Threat Prevention
- Nested Virtualization Support: Inspects traffic between Hyper-V child partitions with <1% CPU overhead using hardware-assisted SLAT.
- AI-Driven API Protection: Detects OWASP Top 10 API vulnerabilities via machine learning trained on 850K+ Azure API Gateway logs.
2. Cloud-Native Protocol Optimization
- QUIC/HTTP3 Decryption: Full-stack inspection of Azure Front Door traffic with 5Gbps throughput per vCPU core.
- TLS 1.3 Hardware Offload: Leverages Microsoft’s DPU-based Project Olympus for 60% faster handshakes.
3. Operational Integration
- Azure Policy Sync: Automates WAF rule deployment via Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates.
- Unified Monitoring: Correlates Hyper-V performance counters with WAF event logs in Azure Monitor.
Critical Security Patches
- CVE-2025-33519: HTTP/2 PRIORITY frame manipulation causing memory exhaustion (patched in build 0365).
- CVE-2025-30844: Unauthorized CLI access via Azure Serial Console (CVSS 8.5).
