For **other [supported](http://www.checkpoint.com/support-services/support-life-cycle-policy/index.html) versions** , [Check Point Support](http://www.checkpoint.com/support-services/contact-support/index.html) can supply a **Hotfix**.

Customers should install the following hotfix on their Security Gateways.

Procedure:
----------

**Note:** In cluster environment, this procedure must be performed on all members of the cluster.

* **Show / Hide hotfix installation instructions - Gaia OS using CPUSE (Check Point Update Service Engine)**  

  We recommend using **[CPUSE](http://supportcontent.checkpoint.com/solutions?id=sk92449#How to work with CPUSE)**to install this hotfix.

  **Note:** Hotfix has to be installed on **Security Gateway / each cluster member**.
  * **In Gaia Portal:**

    1. Connect to the Gaia Portal on your machine.   

    2. Obtain the lock over the configuration database (click on the lock icon at the top - near '`Sign Out`').   

    3. Navigate to the '`Software Updates`' - '`Status and Actions`' pane.   

    4. Go to the '`Updates`' tab to see the published hotfixes available for download.   

    5. Select the **`Check_Point_Hotfix_`*VERSION*`_sk100431.tgz`** package - right-click on it - click on '`Download`' (this will download the hotfix to your machine).   

    6. Right-click on the **`Check_Point_Hotfix_`*VERSION*`_sk100431.tgz`** package - click on '`Install`' (this will install the hotfix on the machine and display the installation status).
