Technical Details

what runs on :18184

The IANA assignment covers TCP and UDP port 18184, although OPSEC LEA deployments conventionally use TCP. The protocol uses a client/server session with Check Point OPSEC authentication and SSL/TLS protection in normal deployments, then transfers log records from the management server to the LEA client. Exact authentication and certificate settings depend on the Check Point release and OPSEC application configuration.

security overview

LEA exposes security and audit logs, which can contain sensitive network, user, and policy information. It should normally be restricted to authorized collectors and management networks rather than exposed to the internet; an attacker would primarily gain information through unauthorized access or exploit product-specific management-server weaknesses.
