Introduction:
=============
Targeting large enterprises the FortiDB-2000B appliance provides scalable 
database security and 
compliance solution. Utilizing its flexible policy framework, the FortiDB-2000B 
allows quick and 
easy implementation of internal IT control frameworks for database activity 
monitoring (DAM/DAA), 
IT audit, and regulatory compliance.

Designed for mid-sized enterprises, the FortiDB-1000C appliance provides a 
comprehensive database 
security and compliance solution. Through its web-based interface, the 
FortiDB-1000C centrally 
monitors, audits and scans multiple distributed, heterogeneous databases. This

Severity:
=========
Medium


Details:
========
A non-persistent input validation vulnerability is detected in FortiGates 
FortiDB Appliance 2000B 1000C & 400B. 
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to implement/inject malicious script 
code on the application side (persistent). 
The vulnerability is located in the Java Number Format Exception Handling 
module with the bound vulnerable output listing. 
The bug is on application side & the execution is non-persistent out of the 
object exception-handling web application 
appliance context. Exploitation requires low or medium user inter action. 
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability can 
lead to session hijacking (manager/admin) or stable (persistent) context 
manipulation. 

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] Java Number Format Exception Handling

Affected Function(s):
                                [+] (Output) Listing


Proof of Concept:
=================
The vulnerability can be exploited by remote attacker with medium or high 
required user inter action. For demonstration or reproduce ...
