Description:
Tim Brown and Mark Lowe have reported a vulnerability in Checkpoint VPN-1 products, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose certain system information.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the port address translation (PAT) feature when responding with ICMP time exceeded messages. This can be exploited to disclose e.g. the internal IP address of the firewall management server by sending a specially crafted packet containing a low time-to-live (TTL) value to port 18264/TCP.
