Description

Check Point FireWall-1 was reported to have a flaw that allowed LDAP authenticated users to access more resources than the firewall was intended to allow. The issue is due to the "fw1allowed-dst" rule apparently ignoring the LDAP attribute and granting access to "any" instead. Check Point has responded that this is the desired behavior and working as intended.
