January 20, 2020 – Additional information
The vulnerability has been identified, with an increased risk of vulnerability leaks and the potential for an uncoordinated disclosure we are highly recommending you follow the mitigation steps released by Citrix. At this time, multiple groups have released working exploits for the Citrix ADC path traversal flaw. At first, two exploits were released, however many variations of the exploit continue to be found.
Citrix has released mitigation steps for defenses, the Citrix workaround (“patch”) is still your best defense at this time until Citrix releases a new Firmware with the corrective actions built in. If you haven’t applied these mitigation steps yet, make sure your Citrix ADC has not already been compromised and apply the mitigation as soon as you can. If you need assistance in applying the mitigation, please contact EDCi’s Technical Services Center at 1-800-332-3553.
