What it detects

This rule detects HTTP requests to the SmartConsole /cpmws/LoginSvcRemote token redemption endpoint. Rapid7 documented abuse of this SOAP endpoint to redeem forged SSO tokens as part of the CVE-2026-16232 authentication bypass against Check Point management servers. Legitimate SmartConsole clients also reach this endpoint so alerts should be correlated with unexpected source hosts or forged application token audit events.
