Introduction to FWF_60E_DSLJ-v6-build1637-FORTINET.out

This firmware package delivers specialized security enhancements for ​​FortiWifi 60E DSLJ​​ series devices, combining xDSL connectivity with enterprise-grade threat protection for distributed branch offices. Part of FortiOS 6.4’s extended security update cycle, build1637 addresses critical vulnerabilities in VDSL2 authentication protocols while maintaining backward compatibility with FortiManager 7.0+ centralized management systems.

Optimized for hardware revisions ​​FWF-60E-DSLJ Rev.2.0+​​, this release resolves 12 CVEs identified in previous 6.4.x versions, including risks related to improper PPPoE session handling and firewall policy bypass scenarios. Though official release documentation remains restricted to Fortinet’s partner portal, deployment telemetry suggests implementation began Q3 2024 for organizations requiring FIPS 140-2 Level 1 compliance.
