If the first firewall service object in the service list (based on the order in the command line table) has a protocol type of IP, the GUI may incorrectly modify its protocol number whenever a new firewall service of the same protocol type IP is created in the GUI.

This silent misconfiguration can result in unexpected behavior of firewall policies that use the impacted service. For example, some 6K and 7K platforms have firewall service ALL (protocol type IP) as the first service, and this can cause the ALL service to be modified unexpectedly.

Workaround: create a new service in the CLI, or move a non-IP type services to the top of the firewall service list. For example, if ALL is the first firewall service in the list:

config firewall service custom
    edit "unused"
        set tcp-portrange 1
    next
    move "unused" before "ALL"
end

Firewall Policy list may show empty sequence grouping sections if multiple policies are sharing the same global-label.

Workaround: drag and drop the policy to the correct sequence group in the GUI, or remove the global-label for each member policy in the group except for the leading policy. For example, in the configuration, policy 2 will be automatically grouped under group1 without the need of adding the same global-label.

• Policy 1 (global-label "group")
• Policy 2
• Policy 3 (global-label "group2")
• Policy 4

FG-3000D cluster kernel panic occurs when upgrading from 7.0.5 to 7.0.6 and later.

On the System > FortiGuard page, the override FortiGuard server for AntiVirus & IPS Updates shows an Unknown status, even if the server is working correctly. This is a display issue only; the override feature is working properly.

On the Network > Interfaces page when VDOM mode is enabled, the Global view incorrectly shows the status of IPsec tunnel interfaces from non-management VDOMs as up. The VDOM view shows the correct status.

On the Policy & Objects > Firewall Policy page, the policy list can take around 30 seconds or more to load when there is a large number (over 20 thousand) of policies.

Workaround: use the CLI to configure policies.

System > Certificates list sometimes shows an incorrect reference count for a certificate, and incorrectly allows a user to delete a referenced certificate. The deletion will fail even though a success message is shown. Users should be able to delete the certificate after all references are removed.

When using the SSL VPN web portal in the Firefox, users cannot paste text into the SSH terminal emulator.

Workaround: use Chrome, Edge, or Safari as the browser.

When upgrading firmware from 7.0.1 to 7.0.2, the GUI incorrectly displays a warning saying this is not a valid upgrade path.

An undefined error is displayed when changing an administrator password for the first time. Affected models: NP7 platforms.

When viewing entries in the slide-out window of the Policy & Objects > Internet Service Database page, users cannot scroll down to the end if there are over 100000 entries.

After packets go through host interface TX/RX queues, some packet buffers can still hold references to a VDOM when the host queues are idle. This causes a VDOM delete error with unregister_vf. If more packets go through the same host queues for other VDOMs, the issue should resolve by itself because those buffers holding the VDOM reference can be pushed and get freed and recycled.

FortiGate 4200F, 4201F, 4400F, and 4401F HA1, HA2, AUX1, and AUX2 interfaces cannot be added to an LAG.

Sessions being processed by hyperscale firewall policies with hardware logging may be dropped when dynamically changing the log-processor setting from hardware to host for the hardware log sever added to the hyperscale firewall policy. To avoid dropping sessions, change the log-processor setting during quiet periods.

Hit count not ticking for implicit deny policy for hardware session in case of NAT46 and NAT64 traffic.

service-negate does not work as expected in a hyperscale deny policy.

srcaddr-negate and dstaddr-negate are not working properly for IPv6 traffic with FTS.

Output of diagnose sys npu-session list/list-full does not mention policy route information.

Diagnose command should be available to show hit_count/last_used for policy route and NPU session on hyperscale VDOM.

Get PARSE SKIP ERROR=17 NPD ERR PBR ADDRESS console error log when system boots up.

The diagnose firewall ippool list command does not show the correct output for overload type IP pools.

NPD/LPMD process killed by out of memory killer after running mixed sessions and HA failover.

IPsec aggregate static route is not marked inactive if the IPsec aggregate is down.

IPsec static router gateway IP is set to the gateway of the tunnel interface when it is not specified.

Slow GUI performance in large Fabric topology with over 50 downstream devices.

Security Rating report for Rogue AP Detection and FortiCare Support checks show incorrect results.

Multiple DNS suffixes cannot be set for the SSL VPN portal.

Traffic passing through an EMAC VLAN interface when the parent interface is in another VDOM is blocked if NP7 offloading is enabled.

Workaround: set the auto-asic-offload option to disable in the firewall policy.

High memory usage occurs on FG-200F.

When setting the speed of 1G SFP ports on FG-180xF platforms to 1000full, the interface does not come up after rebooting.

NP7 platforms may encounter random kernel crash after reboot or factory reset.

Console may display mce: [Hardware Error] error message after fresh image burn or reboot.

Console keeps displaying bcm_nl.nr_request_drop ... after the FortiGate reboots because of the cfg-save revert setting under config system global. Affected platforms: FG-10xF and FG-20xF.

FG-20xF system halts if setting cfg-save to revert under config system global and after the cfg-revert-timeout occurs.

FortiGate might enter conserve mode if disk logging is enabled and log-traffic all is set in a policy.

Kernel panic occurs due to null pointer dereference.

When a user is logged in as a VDOM administrator with restricted access and tries to upload a certificate (System > Certificates), the Create button on the Create Certificate pane is grayed out.

In a certain edge case, traffic directed towards a VLAN interface could trigger a kernel interruption.

After upgrading to 7.0.8, replacemsg utm parameters are not taken over and revert to the default. Affected replacement messages under config system replacemsg utm: virus-html, virus-text, dlp-html, dlp-text, and appblk-html.
