NVD · unedited
Race Condition in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway when appliance is configured as Gateway (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) or AAA virtual server leading to User Session Mixup

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A race condition exists in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway when configured as a Gateway virtual server (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) or AAA virtual server. This vulnerability can cause user session mixup, potentially allowing one user to access or interact with another user's session.

MitigationApply the vendor-provided patch for CVE-2026-4368. If a patch is unavailable, consider restricting access to affected Gateway and AAA virtual server configurations pending remediation.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify NetScaler deployment type
    Confirm whether NetScaler ADC or NetScaler Gateway is deployed in your environment by checking the system information or license details.
    Affected if The system is running NetScaler ADC or NetScaler Gateway software.
  2. Check for Gateway virtual server configuration
    Use the NetScaler command line (show vserver) or GUI to list all configured virtual servers and identify any with type SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, or RDP Proxy.
    Affected if A Gateway virtual server is configured with SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, or RDP Proxy service type.
  3. Check for AAA virtual server configuration
    Use the NetScaler command line (show aaa vserver) or GUI to list all AAA virtual servers configured on the system.
    Affected if One or more AAA virtual servers are configured on the NetScaler appliance.
  4. Verify active session handling
    Review session logs or use the NetScaler command (show session) during peak usage to observe whether multiple user sessions are being processed concurrently on affected virtual servers.
    Affected if Users report experiencing sessions belonging to other users or unexpected session behavior on Gateway or AAA virtual servers.

Your environment is affected if you run NetScaler ADC or NetScaler Gateway with any Gateway virtual server (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) or AAA virtual server configured, as the race condition only triggers when these specific configurations are active.
