An OS command injection (CWE-78) vulnerability in FortiClient for Linux may allow an unauthenticated, network-adjacent attacker to execute privileged and arbitrary commands on the Linux appliance on which FortiClient is running by tricking the user into connecting to a network with a malicious name (SSID).A successful attack requires that the attacker has control over the access point the host is connected to.
