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.
A vulnerability has been discovered in the customer-managed ShareFile storage zones controller which, if exploited, could allow an unauthenticated attacker to remotely compromise the customer-managed ShareFile storage zones controller.
This vulnerability affects all currently supported versions of customer-managed ShareFile storage zones controller before version 5.11.24.
This bulletin only applies to customer-managed ShareFile storage zones controllers. Customers using ShareFile-managed storage zones in the cloud do not need to take any action.

Improper resource control allows unauthenticated remote compromise
Network access to the ShareFile storage zones controller
All customer-managed ShareFile storage zones controllers versions prior to the latest version 5.11.24 have been blocked to protect our customers. Customers will be able to reinstate the storage zones controller once the update to 5.11.24 is applied.
Customers should shut down any machine that was running an affected version of the storage zones controller software.
Citrix has identified an isolated issue in which some customers experienced a crash condition after upgrading to the current build with HTTP/2 enabled.
What Product is Affected?
NetScaler appliance upgraded to version NS13.1 Build 45.63 or NS13.0 Build 90.11
*No other versions are impacted by this HTTP/2 issue.
Is there a workaround or fix?
Workaround: Disable http2 in the HTTP profile bound to the virtual server.
Fix: Engineering is working on a code fix and will update the ETA of the next build as soon as possible.
How to verify if http2 is enabled?
Run the following command from the CLI and verify if http2Direct Is reported as enabled.
> show run | grep http2
Example of output if enabled:
> set ns httpProfile <name of httpprofile> -http2 ENABLED -http2Direct ENABLED
Example of output if not enabled:
> set ns httpProfile <name of httpprofile> -http2 DISABLED -http2Direct DISABLED
How to disable http2 if enabled?
> set ns httpProfile <name of the httpprofile> -http2 DISABLED -http2Direct DISABLED

Kunden, die auf ihrem NetScaler Kerberos verwenden, bekommen nach dem Microsoft November Update ein Problem. Kerberos funktioniert danach nicht mehr mit dem NetScaler und auch weitere Umsysteme sind davon betroffen. Sie erhalten bei einem Login Versuch via NetScaler folgenden Eintrag im System Eventlog des Domain Controllers:
While processing an AS request for target service <service>, the account <account name> did not have a suitable key for generating a Kerberos ticket (the missing key has an ID of 1). The requested etypes : 18 3. The accounts available etypes : 23 18 17. Changing or resetting the password of <account name> will generate a proper key.
ACHTUNG: Diese Anpassungen sind nur als Workaround zu verstehen und sollten wieder rückgängig gemacht werden, sobald Microsoft einen Fix für den Fehler bereitstellt!
UPDATE 18.11.2022
Microsoft hat ein OOB Update für Domain Controller veröffentlicht, welches das oben beschriebene Problem löst.
Nach der Installation des Updates auf allen Domain Controllern ist es möglich RC4 wieder vom KCD Account zu entfernen (Attribut: msDS-SupportedEncryptionTypes, Value: 24) und falls gesetzt, den Reg Key «KrbtgtFullPacSignature» wieder zu entfernen.
