## Summary

WatchGuard Fireware OS, the operating system for WatchGuard firewall appliances, is affected by a flaw in how its AuthPoint multi-factor authentication verification works. An attacker with local access to the appliance could hijack another user's in-progress MFA session and gain unauthorized access if the victim accepts a push notification.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- WatchGuard Fireware OS: from 2025.1, fixed in 2026.4; from 12.7, fixed in 12.12.4

## Description

An improper authentication vulnerability in WatchGuard Fireware OS's AuthPoint multi-factor authentication process allows a local, unauthenticated attacker on the appliance to hijack another user's in-progress MFA session by supplying a specially crafted request and convincing the victim user to accept an MFA push notification.
