Threat actors exploited PHP2Shell vulnerabilities to hack Check Point Gateway appliances and deploy a wiper against victim organizations.

Vulnerabilities tracked as CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 were patched on October 21, yet exploitation occurred days before patches and continued shortly after.
