CVE-2026-18574
NVD analysis in progress
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.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
