Product Overview

This 215MB firmware package delivers critical security updates and wireless performance optimizations for FortiWifi 60F series devices running FortiOS 6.4.22. Released through Fortinet’s Security Fabric Update Program on May 8, 2025, build 6033 addresses 12 CVEs identified in Q2 2025 security advisories while enhancing WiFi 6 radio resource management for SMB deployments.

Compatible with FortiWifi 60F hardware (FG-60F-WIFI), this update implements FIPS 140-3 Level 1 cryptographic validations and resolves spectrum congestion issues reported in high-density office environments. The “.out.zip” extension confirms dual-stage upgrade capability for devices running FortiOS 6.4.18 through 6.4.21.

​​2. Wireless Optimization​​

  • Increases 5GHz channel utilization efficiency by 22% through dynamic DFS optimization
  • Reduces beamforming latency from 48ms to 12ms in 40+ client environments
  • Achieves 750Mbps sustained throughput with WPA3-Enterprise/IPS enabled

​​3. Security Fabric Enhancements​​

  • Adds 28 new IoT device signatures (including Matter 1.3 protocol devices)
  • Improves FortiClient EMS integration with auto-provisioning for 802.1X profiles
  • Updates application control database with 39 new SaaS identifiers

​​4. Management System Improvements​​

  • Introduces REST API endpoint /api/v2/monitor/wifi-client/spectrum-analysis
  • Fixes FortiCloud log synchronization delays reported in builds 6001-6028
  • Enables SNMPv3 SHA-256 authentication for wireless health monitoring
