Firewall firmware security updates — official vendor sources

Firewall coverage should lead with urgency, exploitability, and clear fixed-version guidance.

Fortinet, Zyxel, and a real Cisco Secure Firewall lane

This page is grounded in the current research notes and official-source dataset, then organized into a cleaner public landing page. Fortinet still leads on urgency, and the newest worthwhile addition is a July 2026 LDAP-authentication-bypass advisory for Agentless VPN and FSSO with one exact FortiOS fixed release. Zyxel adds useful vendor breadth with official fixed-version guidance, and Cisco Secure Firewall now has its first indexed operator-relevant record instead of a watch-only placeholder.
