Attack profile from CVSS 4.0 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-119 and the CVSS impact.
Summary
NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway before 14.1-73.46 and before 13.1-64.29 are affected, as are NetScaler ADC FIPS before 14.1-73.46 FIPS and before 13.1.37.283 FIPS, when configured as a SAML SP or SAML IdP. A memory overflow flaw (CWE-119) lets a remote attacker write past the bounds of a memory buffer. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit it without user interaction, though with high attack complexity, to execute code or cause a denial of service.
