Bug vulnerability class | Configuration |
Bug description | StoneGate firewalls provide on port tcp/2545 the possibility of remote administration. This port may be used by an attacker to gain privileged access. Especially over the Internet should this admin interface not be reachable. |
Bug solution | Reconfigure the StoneGate Firewall so just the administrator can reach the port tcp/2545 from the internal network. Administration over the Internet is too dangerous. |
