Critical NetScaler Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks

CISA added critical Citrix NetScaler flaw CVE-2026-19490 (CVSS 9.3) to its KEV catalog after confirming exploitation of gateway and AAA virtual servers in the wild.

CISA warned that threat actors are exploiting CVE-2026-19490, a critical-severity flaw (CVSS 9.3) affecting NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway appliances configured as a gateway (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) or AAA virtual server. Citrix patched the bug on August 19, and Rapid7 warned it is remotely exploitable without authentication. Sensor data from Previdian shows exploitation ongoing since at least September 3, one day after a public exploit appeared on GitHub, with matching requests observed from three IPs across three countries. CISA added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, giving federal agencies three days to patch under BOD 26-04.
