Citrix urges customers to fix critical NetScaler authentication bypass (CVE-2026-19490)
Citrix patched a critical authentication bypass, CVE-2026-19490, in NetScaler Gateway and NetScaler ADC, urging customers to upgrade immediately.
Citrix has patched two flaws in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway. CVE-2026-19490 is a critical authentication bypass (CVSS v4.0 9.3) that works when the appliance is configured as an SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy Gateway or AAA virtual server, with additional conditions depending on firmware and SAML configuration. A second flaw, CVE-2026-19489 (CVSS 8.8), is a memory overflow that can cause denial of service when SIP ALG is enabled on LSN setups. Rapid7 had not observed exploitation as of August 19, 2026, but urged emergency patching; a signature-based mitigation is available via NetScaler Console.

Risky Bulletin: BEC campaign steals €35 million from French notaries
Hackers stole over €35 million from 500+ French notary offices in a four-year BEC campaign; ANSSI spent two years helping evict the attackers.
A business email compromise campaign breached more than 500 French notary offices — about 7% of all French notaries per the Conseil Supérieur du Notariat — over four years, stealing more than €35 million by phishing initial access and silently modifying wire transfer details. France's cybersecurity agency ANSSI worked for two years behind the scenes to help notaries remove the persistent attackers, who had deep access; officials also feared hackers could issue fake notarized acts such as marriage certificates or forged real estate deals. No forged documents have been found so far, but notaries have added two-factor authentication and in-person requirements for banking details, and banks added extra checks in 2024. The newsletter also notes other incidents, including a $320 million Bitcoin extraction from Blockstream's Liquid Network and a JetBrains Cadence breach via TeamCity servers.

Critical NetScaler Flaw Can Bypass Authentication on Certain Gateway and AAA Servers
Citrix patches critical NetScaler Gateway and AAA authentication bypass CVE-2026-19490 (CVSS 9.3) plus a SIP ALG memory overflow flaw; exploitation attempts observed.
Citrix fixed CVE-2026-19490 (CVSS 9.3), an authentication bypass affecting customer-managed NetScaler ADC and Gateway appliances configured as Gateway (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) or AAA virtual servers, and CVE-2026-19489 (CVSS 8.8), a memory overflow causing DoS when SIP ALG is enabled in Large Scale NAT groups. Updates are available in versions 14.1-73.32, 13.1-63.21, and corresponding FIPS/NDcPP builds, while Citrix-managed cloud services were already patched. The flaws were reported by Samarth Vashisht of JPMorgan Chase's penetration-testing team, and Previdian later observed 10 exploitation attempts against CVE-2026-19490 from six unique IP addresses in Australia, Germany, Japan, and the US, with no confirmed compromise.
