An authentication bypass vulnerability in Check Point Security Management Server and Multi-Domain Security Management Server (MDS) could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker with network access to Management services to execute arbitrary commands on the Security Management Server. Successful exploitation could result in full compromise of the Security Management system. Check Point discovered this issue internally and has no indication of active exploitation.
A vulnerability in Check Point Gaia Portal allows an authenticated attacker with read-only Gaia Portal privileges to execute commands with root privileges.
An authentication bypass vulnerability in Check Point Security Management and Multi-Domain Security Management allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute administrative commands on the Management Server. Successful exploitation may also allow command execution on managed Security Gateways. Exploitation requires network access to the Management Server without firewall protection or a configuration that does not restrict Trusted Clients.
An authentication bypass vulnerability in the Check Point SmartConsole login process allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to obtain an application login token and use it to authenticate with full administrative privileges. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to modify security policies and security configurations. Remote exploitation requires internet access to the Management Server IP address and a configuration that does not restrict Trusted Clients. Check Point is aware that this vulnerability is being exploited and has affected a very small number of customers.
A local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Check Point Identity Agent Full for Windows OS. An authenticated local user may be able to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges due to improper handling of executable resolution during the log collection process. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to gain elevated privileges on the affected Windows endpoint.
Got the following from Check Point this morning. (Happy Monday)

Looks like they dropped 2 new CVE's recently CVE-2026-50751 and CVE-2026-50752. The biggest one is CVE-2026-50751 which can allow an authenticated connection to VPN. Those of you still running IKEv1 take care to update your systems.
A logic flow weakness in Remote Access and Mobile Access certificate validation in deprecated IKEv1 key exchange allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to bypass user authentication and establish a remote access VPN connection without a valid user password.
When Compliance is enabled on Check Point Multi-Domain Management, an authenticated administrator with read-write access to one Management Domain (CMA) can modify stored metadata associated with Compliance Best Practices in another Management Domain, where the administrator has no access permissions, bypassing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
A Check Point HTTP-based service can incorrectly handle malformed HTTP requests. The issue is related to HTTP request parsing and validation.
When the DLP is active, the UserCheck Web Portal contains an input-handling issue in the UserChoice flow. Under specific conditions, an attacker who can access the UserCheck Ask page could attempt to manipulate the Security Gateway's stored DLP/UserCheck incident information. This could lead to disruptions such as loss of stored incident entries, incorrect handling of pending approvals, or resource impact if the issue is abused repeatedly. Exposure is reduced if the UserCheck Portal is not accessible from untrusted networks.
When the Identity Awareness blade is enabled with Browser-Based Authentication, an unauthenticated user may be able to read certain internal files on the Security Gateway.
A local user can trigger Harmony SASE Windows client to write or delete files outside the intended certificate working directory.
An authenticated local user can obtain information that allows claiming security policy rules of another user due to sensitive information being accessible in the Windows Registry keys for Check Point Identity Agent running on a Terminal Server.
In rare scenarios, the cpca process on the Security Management Server / Domain Management Server may exit unexpectedly, creating a core dump file. When the cpca process is down, VPN and SIC connectivity issues may occur if the CRL is not present in the Security Gateway's CRL cache.
Check Point ZoneAlarm Extreme Security Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Check Point ZoneAlarm Extreme Security. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the Forensic Recorder service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to overwrite arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-21677.

Check Point Quantum Security Gateways contain an unspecified information disclosure vulnerability. The vulnerability potentially allows an attacker to access information on Gateways connected to the internet, with IPSec VPN, Remote Access VPN or Mobile Access enabled. This issue affects several product lines from Check Point, including CloudGuard Network, Quantum Scalable Chassis, Quantum Security Gateways, and Quantum Spark Appliances.
A local attacker can erscalate privileges on affected Check Point ZoneAlarm ExtremeSecurity NextGen, Identity Agent for Windows, and Identity Agent for Windows Terminal Server. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute local privileged code on the target system.
This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Check Point ZoneAlarm Extreme Security. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The ZDI has assigned a CVSS rating of 7.8. The following CVEs are assigned: CVE-2023-28134.

REJECT DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: None. Reason: this candidate is solely about a configuration that does not directly introduce security vulnerabilities, so it is more appropriate to cover under the Common Configuration Enumeration (CCE). In addition, it describes standard behavior (publication of revocation lists) and as such does not cross privilege boundaries. Notes: the former description is: "Check Point FireWall-1 allows remote attackers to obtain certificate revocation lists (CRLs) and other unspecified sensitive information via an HTTP request for the top-level URI on the internal certificate authority (ICA) port (18264/tcp)."
