Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
When the DLP is active, the UserCheck Web Portal contains an input-handling issue in the UserChoice flow. Under specific conditions, an attacker who can access the UserCheck Ask page could attempt to manipulate the Security Gateway's stored DLP/UserCheck incident information. This could lead to disruptions such as loss of stored incident entries, incorrect handling of pending approvals, or resource impact if the issue is abused repeatedly. Exposure is reduced if the UserCheck Portal is not accessible from untrusted networks.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

This is a Check Point DLP vulnerability in the UserCheck Web Portal's UserChoice flow. An attacker with access to the UserCheck Ask page can manipulate input to affect the Security Gateway's stored DLP/UserCheck incident data, potentially causing loss of incident entries, approval handling errors, or resource exhaustion from repeated attacks.

MitigationRestrict access to the UserCheck Portal from untrusted networks and apply any available Check Point patches for this DLP input-handling issue.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Check Point DLP deployment
    Identify if Check Point DLP blade or policy is installed on the Security Gateway. Run 'cpstat -d' or check SmartConsole/Management UI for DLP blade status.
    Affected if Check Point DLP is not deployed or the DLP blade is disabled on the Security Gateway.
  2. Verify UserCheck Web Portal is enabled
    In SmartConsole, navigate to Gateways > Gateway Properties > UserCheck > Portal Settings, or run 'cpstat -f usercheck' on the gateway CLI to confirm the UserCheck portal service is active.
    Affected if The UserCheck Web Portal is disabled and not accessible to users.
  3. Confirm DLP policy is active
    Check if there is an active DLP policy rulebase in SmartConsole under Security Policies > DLP, or run 'dlp_policy get' on the management server to list active DLP rules.
    Affected if No DLP policy is installed or the DLP policy is set to 'Inactive' mode.
  4. Check UserChoice flow configuration
    In SmartConsole, review DLP rules that use the UserChoice action. Inspect the rule's 'UserCheck settings' to confirm the UserChoice workflow is configured. This flow allows users to approve/deny incidents through the portal.
    Affected if No DLP rules utilize the UserChoice action; only automated actions (like 'Ask User' without UserChoice or 'Drop') are in use.
  5. Inspect incident storage for anomalies
    On the Security Gateway, review DLP incident logs in SmartLog or the management server's incident database for unusual patterns: sudden spikes in incident counts, missing incidents, or approvals occurring outside expected workflows.
    Affected if Incident logs appear normal with no unexpected manipulation or approval anomalies.

The environment is affected if Check Point DLP is deployed with an active policy, the UserCheck Web Portal is enabled, and DLP rules with UserChoice workflow are configured, allowing authenticated portal users to potentially manipulate stored incident data.
