CVE-2024-8534:

Customers can determine if they have an appliance configured as one of the following by inspecting their ns.conf file for the specified strings

  • A Gateway (VPN Vserver) with the RDP Feature enabled,
    enable ns feature.*rdpproxy
    add vpn vserver 
  • A Gateway (VPN Vserver) with an RDP Proxy Server Profile created and set to the Gateway (VPN Vserver)
    add rdp serverprofile <RDP_server_name>
    add vpn vserver <vserver_name>  -rdpServerProfileName <RDP_server_name>
  • An Auth Server (AAA Vserver) with the RDP Feature enabled.
    enable ns feature.*rdpproxy
    add authentication vserver

CVE-2024-8535:
Customers can determine if they have an appliance configured as one of the following by inspecting their ns.conf file for the specified strings

  • A Gateway (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) with KCDAccount configuration for Kerberos SSO to access backend resources
    add aaa kcdaccount
  • An Auth Server (AAA Vserver)  with KCDAccount configuration for Kerberos SSO to access backend resources
    add aaa kcdaccount

In addition, upon upgrading to the fixed version, customers must perform the shell commands mentioned below:
nsapimgr_wr.sh -ys call=ns_aaa_flush_kerberos_tickets

Note: In case of High Availability (HA) or Cluster setup of the NetScaler appliances, the above operation should be performed after upgrading all the appliances.

ACHTUNG:

Das Update von Firmware Versionen kleiner, oder gleich 12.1.59.x, bzw. 13.0.64.35 führt dazu, dass der SSO für viele Anwendungen nicht mehr funktioniert. Vor dem Update sollte daher unbedingt folgender Citrix eDocs Artikel gelesen werden: Enable SSO for Basic, Digest, and NTLM authentication (citrix.com)
