Details: Vulnerable Systems:

* Check Point Server version R72
* Check Point Server version R73
* Check Point Server version Integrity Server version 7.
These files are also exposed via the Tomcat server:
http://server:8080/conf/ssl/apache/integrity-smartcenter.cert
The directories include the SSL private keys, sensitive configuration files (often containing passwords), and application binaries.
Patch Availability:
This patch blocks remote access to the Tomcat instance (8080) and restricts access to private directories via POST and GET requests. This patch does not prevent a remote attacker from determining the size of a sensitive file by using HEAD requests.
