An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18574 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: checkpoint Multi-Domain Security Management Server. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18574/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18574/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18574","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18574/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18574","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-79qj-wj2w-h4v7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Security Management Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can bypass authentication to execute arbitrary commands on Check Point Security Management Servers, leading to full system compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"checkpoint","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-288","name":"Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel"}],"description":"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.
