Hi,

As many will likely have heard, there has been a leak of fortinet
configuration files posted to the Internet lately.

This leak also contains a large number of private keys that are
encrypted with a password, and the password is encrypted with a
publicly known static password. I had already written a blogpost about
this a few days ago, and have added some updates yesterday and today:
https://blog.hboeck.de/archives/908-Private-Keys-in-the-Fortigate-Leak.html

Many of those keys belonged to publicly trusted certificates, a smaller
number of them were unrevoked at the time of the incident. Also, the
data contained keys for Let's Encrypt ACME accounts.

I have reported all the certificates with affected private keys to the
responsible CAs for revocation, and have disabled the affected ACME
accounts.
