    I could be wrong but this is a quick summary as I would look at it. As the Sysop for a small company running linux

    Fortinet FortiOS, FortiProxy, and FortiSwitchManager:
        Type: Authentication bypass vulnerability
        Impact: If you're using any of these Fortinet products, an attacker could bypass authentication mechanisms and potentially access or control the system.
        Affect on Linux users: Only those Linux users who have these Fortinet products in their environments would be affected.

        Affect on Linux users: Relevant for Linux users/administrators who use Fortinet FortiNAC in their network.
    
    CVE-2021-22205:
        Product: GitLab CE/EE
        Type: Unauthenticated RCE
        Impact: An attacker could remotely execute code without authentication on GitLab instances.
