An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2026-88773 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2026-88773 is a critical vulnerability in Citrix NetScaler ADC, published on 27 Sep 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-88773 exists.\n\nAffected product: Citrix NetScaler 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-2026-88773/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88773/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-88773","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88773/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-88773","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9x87-2c36-ffjf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Citrix NetScaler ADC","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit HTTP request smuggling in Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway to bypass security controls or access sensitive data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"NetScaler","cpe":[{"product":"netscaler_application_delivery_controller","vendor":"citrix"},{"product":"netscaler_gateway","vendor":"citrix"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-444","name":"Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests"}],"description":"Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests ('HTTP Request/Response smuggling') vulnerability in Citrix NetScaler ADC and Citrix NetScaler Gateway.\n\nThis issue affects ADC: before 14.1-73.37, before 13.1-64.23, before 14.1-73.37 FIPS, and before 13.1-37.279 and NDcPP; Gateway: before 14.1-73.37 FIPS and before 13.1-64.23.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-09-27","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-10-02T19:59:59Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Scyrix-LLC/CVE-2026-88773","stars":1,"title":"CVE-2026-88773"},{"date":"2026-09-27","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/freebsd/http/citrix_netscaler_cve_2026_88771","stars":null,"title":"Citrix NetScaler Unauthenticated Login Log Command Injection (CVE-2026-88771)"},{"date":"2026-10-23T23:38:37Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/CompleteTech-Security/netscaler-cve-2026-88773-check","stars":0,"title":"Offline NetScaler ADC / Gateway evidence checker for CVE-2026-88773.
