CVE ID
Description
Pre-requisites
CWE
CVSS
CVE-2023-6548
Authenticated (low privileged) remote code execution on Management Interface
Access to NSIP, CLIP or SNIP with management interface access
CVE- 2023- 6548 only impacts the management interface. Cloud Software Group strongly recommends that network traffic to the appliance’s management interface is separated, either physically or logically, from normal network traffic. In addition, we recommend that you do not expose the management interface to the internet, as explained in the secure deployment guide. Removing such exposure to the internet greatly reduces the risk of exploitation of this issue. See NetScaler secure deployment guide ( https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-adc/citrix-adc-secure-deployment/secure-deployment-guide.html) for more information.
What Customers Should Do
Exploits of these CVEs on unmitigated appliances have been observed. Cloud Software Group strongly urges affected customers of NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway to install the relevant updated versions as soon as possible.
NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway 14.1-12.35 and later releases
NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway 13.1-51.15 and later releases of 13.1
NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway 13.0-92.21 and later releases of 13.0
NetScaler ADC 13.1-FIPS 13.1-37.176 and later releases of 13.1-FIPS
NetScaler ADC 12.1-FIPS 12.1-55.302 and later releases of 12.1-FIPS
NetScaler ADC 12.1-NDcPP 12.1-55.302 and later releases of 12.1-NDcPP
Note: NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway version 12.1 is now End Of Life (EOL). Customers are recommended to upgrade their appliances to one supported version that addresses the vulnerabilities.

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
