The version of Fortinet FortiClient running on the remote host is affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability. An unsafe search path vulnerability in FortiClien Windows 7.0.0, 6.4.6 and below, 6.2.x, and 6.0.x may allow an attacker to perform a DLL Hijack attack on affected devices via a malicious OpenSSL engine library in the search path.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
