• CVE-2026-851029.8—
  Unauthenticated RCE in Check Point Quantum Security Gateway via certificate flaw
  CVE-2026-85102 is an improper certificate trust-validation flaw (CWE-295) in the VPN negotiation code of Check Point Quantum Security Gateways. An unauthenticated remote attacker who can reach the gateway's VPN service can trigger the flaw during VPN negotiation, where certificates involved in the exchange are not properly validated, and achieve code execution on the gateway. Successful exploitation yields arbitrary code execution on the gateway with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 9.8), amounting to full compromise of the security gateway. The affected population is organizations running Quantum Security Gateways with VPN services reachable from untrusted networks. As of the available reporting there is no public proof-of-concept, the flaw is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and no in-the-wild exploitation is confirmed; the issue was disclosed alongside a second, similarly rated (9.8) Check Point VPN certificate-validation RCE flaw.

• CVE-2026-851039.8—
  Unauthenticated RCE in Check Point Quantum VPN Certificate ASN.1 Decoding
  CVE-2026-85103 is a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) in the ASN.1 certificate-decoding code used by Check Point's VPN implementation, rated 9.8 Critical with a network-exploitable, unauthenticated, low-complexity vector. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger the flaw by sending crafted certificate data that the VPN service parses during connection handling, causing heap corruption that allows arbitrary code execution on the target system. Successful exploitation grants the attacker code execution with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, which on security gateways and management servers could mean control of the security infrastructure itself. Any organization running Check Point Quantum Security Management or Quantum Security Gateway systems that process VPN certificate traffic is potentially affected, and the advisory set indicates this flaw was disclosed alongside a second, similarly rated 9.8 VPN certificate vulnerability (Check Point advisory AV26-902). There is no evidence of exploitation so far: the flaw is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and no public proof-of-concept is known.

  Authentication Bypass in Check Point SmartConsole Grants Full Admin Access
  Check Point SmartConsole, the administrative client used to manage Quantum Security Management and Multi-Domain Security Management, contains an authentication bypass (CWE-287) in its login process that allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to obtain an application login token and authenticate with full administrative privileges. Exploitation is possible when the Management Server IP address is reachable from the internet and the configuration does not restrict Trusted Clients. A successful attacker can modify security policies and security configurations, effectively taking control of firewall management. Any organization running an internet-exposed Check Point management server without Trusted Client restrictions is affected, though Check Point reports exploitation has impacted only a very small number of customers. The flaw was added to CISA's KEV on 2026-07-22, is actively exploited, and press reports indicate public proof-of-concept code has been released.

• CVE-2026-507519.384%
  Unauthenticated IKEv1 VPN Auth Bypass in Check Point Security Gateways
  Check Point has disclosed CVE-2026-50751, a critical (CVSS 9.3) improper authentication flaw (CWE-287) in the certificate validation logic for Remote Access and Mobile Access VPN when the deprecated IKEv1 key exchange is used. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this logic flow weakness during IKEv1 negotiation to bypass user authentication entirely. Successful exploitation lets the attacker establish a remote access VPN connection without a valid user password, gaining access to the organization's internal network resources (high confidentiality impact per the CVSS score). Any organization running a Check Point Security Gateway on Gaia OS or Gaia Embedded with IKEv1-based Remote Access/Mobile Access configured is affected; specific affected and fixed versions are in Check Point's advisory. The flaw is being exploited in the wild — it was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-06-08 with known ransomware use and an EPSS of 83.8% — and it was disclosed alongside other critical Check Point VPN certificate flaws per recent headlines.
