AI-suggested
1. Immediately restrict access to debug log commands and related diagnostic interfaces to only fully trusted administrators. 2. Implement strict role-based access control (RBAC) on FortiExtender devices to ensure that users with low privileges cannot execute debug commands. 3. Monitor device logs and network traffic for unusual or unauthorized use of debug commands or attempts to access sensitive information. 4. Apply vendor patches or firmware updates as soon as they become available to address this vulnerability. 5. Conduct regular audits of user accounts and permissions on FortiExtender devices to detect and remove unnecessary privileges. 6. Employ network segmentation to isolate FortiExtender management interfaces from general user networks, reducing the risk of unauthorized access. 7. Educate administrators and users about the risks of credential exposure and enforce strong authentication mechanisms. 8. Consider multi-factor authentication (MFA) for accessing device management interfaces to reduce the risk of credential misuse.
