An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-24492 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-24492 is a critical code injection vulnerability in Citrix Secure Access client for Ubuntu, published on 11 Jul 2023. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-24492 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Citrix Secure Access client for Ubuntu. 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-2023-24492/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-24492/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-24492","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-24492/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-24492","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q9w5-96vr-6gqq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Citrix Secure Access client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can remotely execute code on Ubuntu systems if a victim opens a malicious link and accepts prompts in the Citrix Secure Access client.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Citrix","cpe":[{"product":"secure_access_client","vendor":"citrix"}],"cvss":{"score":9.6,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been discovered in the Citrix Secure Access client for Ubuntu which, if exploited, could allow an attacker to remotely execute code if a victim user opens an attacker-crafted link and accepts further prompts.","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":"Code injection in Citrix Secure Access client for Ubuntu","id":"CVE-2023-24492","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in Tenable.sc","id":"CVE-2023-24493"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Citrix Secure Access client for Windows","id":"CVE-2023-24491"},"products":["Citrix Secure Access client for Ubuntu"],"published":"2023-07-11","related":[{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Citrix Secure Access - Local Privilege escalation allows a low-privileged user to gain SYSTEM privileges","id":"CVE-2025-0320","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Citrix Secure Access client for Windows","id":"CVE-2023-24491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-11"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"An attacker can gain application privileges in order to perform limited modification and/or read arbitrary data","id":"CVE-2025-1222","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-20"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"An attacker can gain application privileges in order to perform limited modification and/or read arbitrary data","id":"CVE-2025-1223","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-20"}],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-07","vendors":["Citrix"]},"summary":"Attackers can remotely execute code on Ubuntu systems if a victim opens a malicious link and accepts prompts in the Citrix Secure Access client.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-24492/"}
