Check Point Firewall security scare
Didn't see this posted yet.
Fix available. Get it
By INQUIRER staff: Thursday 29 January 2004, 11:38
HIGHLY CRITICAL errors in popular firewall software from Check Point need filling quick, according to a security bulletin from Secunia.
The alert service said there are hotfixes available for Check Point's FireWall-1 NG with AI, and the Achilles' Hell is in the implementation of the H.323 protocol.
Check Point has acknowledged the problems, said Secunia, which can cause denial of service attacks or system access from default port 1720/tcp.

H.323 Vulnerability
26 January 2004
A recent NISCC advisory reveals vulnerabilities in H.323 equipment including GateKeepers, endpoints (phones, softphones, video cameras, etc.), and firewalls that enforce H.323 security.
In order to protect FireWall-1 against the attacks described in this advisory, Check Point recommends that customers install an update on all enforcement modules.
The update is available for Software Subscription customers from the links below. Check Point also encourages you to contact your H.323 equipment vendors (especially GateKeeper) for any related updates.
