Customers can check their NetScaler configuration to see whether the appliance is set up as a SAML Service Provider (SP) or Identity Provider (IdP). Look for one of the following entries in the configuration: SAML Service Provider (SP): add authentication samlAction SAML Identity Provider (IdP): add authentication samlIdPProfile Check the Affected Versions section above for the specific requirements for each software version. Michael Tucker, Chew Keong Tan and Alex Bernier of the JPMorgan Chase XOR Team, and Maxim Suhanov reported the vulnerability to the vendor. Recently, the company confirmed active exploitation of two other flaws, respectively tracked as CVE-2026-88771 (CVSS score of 9.5) and CVE-2026-88772 (CVSS score of 9.5), on unpatched systems and urged customers to install the relevant updates as soon as possible. This week, CISA added the flaw CVE-2026-88779 to its KeV catalog. The issue is a memory overflow vulnerability in Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway that can cause denial-of-service under specific conditions. It affects certain customer-managed deployments running vulnerable versions. “CVE-2026-88779 is a memory overflow vulnerability in Citrix NetScaler ADC and Citrix NetScaler Gateway that can lead to denial-of-service under specific deployment conditions,” reads the advisory. “The issue affects customer-managed NetScaler deployments running affected supported versions when the required preconditions are met.” Successful exploitation requires NetScaler ADC or Gateway to be configured as a SAML service provider (SP) or identity provider (IdP). Customers can check their configuration for the relevant SAML settings. Follow me on Twitter: @securityaffairs and Facebook and Mastodon Pierluigi Paganini (SecurityAffairs – hacking, Citrix)
