Title:Check Point VPN-1 PAT Information Disclosure Vulnerability - Active Check
Summary:Check Point VPN-1 PAT is prone to an information disclosure; vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Check Point VPN-1 PAT is prone to an information disclosure
vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
By sending crafted packets to ports on the firewall which are
mapped by port address translation (PAT) to ports on internal devices, information about the
internal network may be disclosed in the resulting ICMP error packets.

Port 18264/tcp on the firewall is typically configured in such a manner, with packets to this port
being rewritten to reach the firewall management server.

For example, the firewall fails to correctly sanitise the encapsulated IP headers in ICMP
time-to-live exceeded packets resulting in internal IP addresses being disclosed.

False positive:

This could be false positive alert. Try running same scan against single host where this
vulnerability is reported.

Solution:
We are not aware of a vendor approved solution at the current
time.

On the following platforms, we recommend you mitigate in the described manner:

- Checkpoint VPN-1 R55

- Checkpoint VPN-1 R65

We recommend you mitigate in the following manner:

Disable any implied rules and only open ports for required services Filter outbound ICMP
time-to-live exceeded packets.
