Introduction CVE-2023-4966 and CVE-2023-4967 are critical and high-severity vulnerabilities, respectively, that affect NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway from Citrix. These vulnerabilities can be exploited to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on affected devices.
CVE-2023-4966 is a sensitive information disclosure vulnerability that can be exploited by an attacker to remotely access sensitive information from vulnerable NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway appliances. This information may include usernames, passwords, cookies, and other authentication credentials.
Issue After logging into netscaler gateway, we received “Http/1.1 Internal Server Error 43531” error. Upon looking at the configuration, STA server in the netscaler gateway is marked as down. DDC and storefront are installed on same server. Under traffic management/lb vip was also marked as down and the storefront service group in that lb vip was down. All the probes sent to that STA/storefront server were not successful. TCP-default monitor was attached to the storerfront service group.
Issue:
upgraded netscalers to 13.1 49.13nc version. Post upgrade, when netscaler gateway vip is accessed from browser, it showed “Http/1.1 Internal Server Error 43549” error.
Solution:
If you are using AAA auth profile, you should have authentication vserver, and advanced authentication policies in it. Check if all the required advanced authentication polices (LDAP, RADIUS etc) are present in authentication vserver.
In our troubleshooting, we found that advanced authentication policy was missing in the authentication vserver.
NetScaler Application Delivery Controller (ADC) Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB) is a DNS-based solution which describes a range of technologies to distribute resources around multi-site data center locations. This document describes the deployment topology and configuration architecture needed to set up GSLB between multi-sites where Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops StoreFront servers are load-balanced by NetScaler Gateway and NetScaler ADC.
Fundamental Design Factors The following includes fundamental design factors during an assessment and design phase that affects the formation of the design to cater for requirements.
