An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-27516 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Citrix Gateway, Citrix ADC . No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27516/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27516/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-27516","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27516/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-27516","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cjxq-x92m-g6gc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Citrix Gateway","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass brute force protection on Citrix Gateway and ADC, facilitating unauthorized login attempts.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Citrix","cpe":[{"product":"application_delivery_controller_firmware","vendor":"citrix"},{"product":"gateway","vendor":"citrix"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-307","name":"Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts"},{"id":"CWE-693","name":"Protection Mechanism Failure"}],"description":"User login brute force protection functionality bypass","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"User login brute force protection functionality bypass","id":"CVE-2022-27516","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Citrix Application Delivery Controller (ADC) and Gateway Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2022-27518"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Remote desktop takeover via phishing","id":"CVE-2022-27513"},"products":["Citrix Gateway, Citrix ADC "],"published":"2022-11-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Citrix Application Delivery Controller (ADC) and Gateway Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2022-27518","kev_date_added":"2022-12-13","published":"2022-12-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Citrix ADC, Gateway, and SD-WAN WANOP Appliance Code Execution","id":"CVE-2019-19781","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-12-27"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Citrix ADC, Gateway, and SD-WAN WANOP Appliance Authorization Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-8193","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-10"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Citrix ADC, Gateway, and SD-WAN WANOP Appliance Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2020-8195","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-10"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Citrix ADC, Gateway, and SD-WAN WANOP Appliance Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2020-8196","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Unauthorized access to Gateway user capabilities","id":"CVE-2022-27510","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-18225","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-21"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-01","vendors":["Citrix"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass brute force protection on Citrix Gateway and ADC, facilitating unauthorized login attempts.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27516/"}
