CVE-2020-6021 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows versions prior to E84.20.

By placing a malicious DLL in the repair directory, an attacker can leverage the Endpoint client's elevated privileges. While the CVSS score is 7.8 (HIGH), there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
