How do I patch CVE-2024-24919?

No patch has shipped for CVE-2024-24919 yet — track the checkpoint cloudguard network advisory for a fixed release and apply the workarounds below in the meantime.

How do I detect CVE-2024-24919 across my infrastructure?

Inventory every checkpoint cloudguard network deployment and check each version against the affected-products list above.

How do I mitigate CVE-2024-24919 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Assume what was exposed is already known: rotate any credential, token or key that the affected component could return, restrict the endpoint to callers that genuinely need it, and strip sensitive fields from responses and error output at the boundary rather than relying on the client not to read them. Alongside that, restrict the management interface to trusted networks and apply the vendor's recommended configuration mitigations.

Is CVE-2024-24919 actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 37 known exploit references for CVE-2024-24919, including 19 in-the-wild exploitations observed on GitHub and other sources. Treat this as actively exploitable and prioritize patching immediately. All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2024-24919?

CVE-2024-24919 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 100.0%, placing it in the 100th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. A score above 50% indicates significantly elevated exploitation risk — immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Is CVE-2024-24919 in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog?

Yes. CVE-2024-24919 (Check Point Quantum Security Gateways Information Disclosure Vulnerability) was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog on 2024-05-30. CISA required all US federal civilian agencies to remediate this vulnerability by 2024-06-20. The required action was: Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. This CVE has been used in known ransomware campaigns. Being listed in the KEV catalog is the strongest possible confirmation of active exploitation — treat this as a critical priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2024-24919?

CVE-2024-24919 is classified as Information Exposure (CWE-200). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

Which products and versions are affected by CVE-2024-24919?

CVE-2024-24919 affects checkpoint cloudguard network (1 version, e.g. r80.40); checkpoint quantum security gateway firmware (1 version, e.g. r80.40); checkpoint quantum spark appliances (1 version, e.g. r80.40). Check the affected-products list on this page against your deployed version to confirm exposure.

Is there exploit tooling available for CVE-2024-24919?

A Nuclei detection template exists for CVE-2024-24919, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was CVE-2024-24919 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2024-24919 was published on May 28, 2024 and was last updated on August 5, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
